Rush all over the place to secure a twilled fabric of silk (5)
I believe the answer is:
surah
'rush all over the place to secure a twilled fabric of silk' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'rush all over the place to secure a' is the wordplay.
'all over the place' indicates anagramming the letters.
'to secure' is an insertion indicator (inserted letters are secured inside).
'rush' is an anagram of 'surh'.
'surh' placed around 'a' is 'SURAH'.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
