Pelagia, losing energy, rides, strangely lifted (11)

I believe the answer is:

plagiarised

'lifted' is the definition.
('plagiarise' can be a synonym of 'lift')

'pelagia losing energy rides strangely' is the wordplay.
'losing' is a deletion indicator.
'energy' becomes 'e' (physics symbol as in E=mc2).
'strangely' indicates anagramming the letters.
'pelagia' with 'e' removed is 'plagia'.
'rides' with letters rearranged gives 'rised'.
'plagia'+'rised'='PLAGIARISED'

I've seen this clue in The Times.
