See some memories being conjured up (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rome

'see' is the definition.
(the Holy See or See of Rome is home to the pope)

'some memories being conjured up' is the wordplay.
'some' says the answer is hidden in the clue (some of the parts of the word are used).
'being conjured up' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'emor' is hidden within 'memories'.
'emor' written backwards gives 'ROME'.

(Other definitions for rome that I've seen before include "When here, do as the citizens do" , "Basis for cheese" , "Italian capital (where one Ac died)" , "Seat of Italian empire" , "When there, do as the native do" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
