Pricked (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stung

'pricked' is the definition.
('sting' can be a synonym of 'prick')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for stung that I've seen before include "Punctured eg by wasp" , "Wounded by a bee or wasp" , "Taken for a ride" , "Peeved" , "cheated" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
