Transported like a parcel being delivered (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rapt

'transported' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'like a parcel being delivered' is the wordplay.
'like a parcel' becomes 'wrapped'.
'being delivered' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue (deliver can mean to say out loud).
'wrapped' is a homophone of 'RAPT'.

(Other definitions for rapt that I've seen before include "Fully engaged" , "Very attentive" , "Part of being intent and absorbed" , "carried away" , "Ecstatic in part" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
