Soundly told off but delighted (4)
I believe the answer is:
rapt
'delighted' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rapt that I've seen before include "Part (anag.)" , "Spellbound in part" , "Part being transported" , "Very attentive" , "Absorbed and enchanted" .)
