Crossword Genius

Set aside modesty (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reserve

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'set aside' is the first definition.
('reserve' can be a synonym of 'set aside')

'modesty' is the second definition.
('reserve' can be a synonym of 'modesty')

(Other definitions for reserve that I've seen before include "Book - substitute player" , "Conservation area" , "Bank" , "Twelfth man < 's coolness" , "One on bench" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
