Tearful request

Ross

I believe the answer is:

plea

'tearful request' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for plea that I've seen before include "Answer made by the accused to the charge" , "Intercession" , "Negotiation between prosecutor and defendant" , "Heartfelt request" , "Excuse - pretext" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
