Place on a pedestal (5)
I believe the answer is:
exalt
'place on a pedestal' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for exalt that I've seen before include "put on a pedestal" , "Laud" , "Praise - latex (anag)" , "Praise, glorify, or honour" , "Extol" .)
