Urgently request old stories about devils? (7)
I believe the answer is:
implore
'urgently request' is the definition.
(to implore is to beg desperately or urgently)
'old stories about devils?' is the wordplay.
'old stories' becomes 'lore' (I've seen this in another clue).
'about' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'devils?' becomes 'imp' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'lore' put after 'imp' is 'IMPLORE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for implore that I've seen before include "Beg earnestly, beseech" , "press" , "More lip (anag)" , "Ask earnestly" , "Beg desperately" .)
