Shivering fit (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ague

'shivering fit' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for ague that I've seen before include "Hot and cold fever" , "Malarial fever or fit of shivering" , "Burning fever" , "met with cheek in Twelfth Night" , "Complaint" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times, The Guardian, The New York Times, The Times and The Telegraph.
