Selection of poetry in Greek requiring effort (6)
I believe the answer is:
trying
'requiring effort' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'selection of poetry in greek' is the wordplay.
'selection of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'TRYING' can be found hidden inside 'poetry in greek'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for trying that I've seen before include "job for a jury?" , "Taxing" , "Troublesome - but making an effort" , "occupation of Oliver Wendell Holmes Jnr" , "Doing one's best - annoying!" .)
