Solicit a few pounds for Audrey's husband (10)
I believe the answer is:
touchstone
'audrey's husband' is the definition.
(character in Shakespeare's As You Like It)
'solicit a few pounds' is the wordplay.
'solicit' becomes 'touch' (touch can mean to ask or beg for something).
'a few pounds' becomes 'stone' (a stone weighs the same as 14 pounds).
'touch'+'stone'='TOUCHSTONE'
'for' is the link.
(Other definitions for touchstone that I've seen before include "forest-dweller" , "Standard" , "Character in As You Like It" , "jester" , "Jasper" .)
