One devout woman, old-fashioned, overwhelmed (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

inundated

'overwhelmed' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'one devout woman old-fashioned' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'devout woman' becomes 'nun' (I've seen this before).
'old fashioned' becomes 'dated' (I've seen this before).
'i'+'nun'+'dated'='INUNDATED'

(Other definitions for inundated that I've seen before include "Deluged" , "flooded" , "drowned" .)

I've seen this clue in The Everyman puzzle in The Observer.
