'get away' is the definition.
(command to be gone)

'pep has been cavorting outside' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'pep' could be 'go' (both can mean energy or vitality) and 'go' is found within the answer.
an anagram of 'been' is 'bene' which is present in the left over letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?
