Verse about friend, each in turn (9)
I believe the answer is:
severally
'verse about friend each in turn' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'verse about friend' is the wordplay.
'about' indicates anagramming the letters.
'friend' becomes 'ally' (an ally is a friend or supporter).
'verse' is an anagram of 'sever'.
'sever'+'ally'='SEVERALLY'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for severally that I've seen before include "Not all together" , "respectively" , "separately" , "Singly" .)
