Verse from Iraq aunt translated (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

quatrain

'verse' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'iraq aunt translated' is the wordplay.
'translated' indicates anagramming the letters.
'iraq'+'aunt'='iraqaunt'
'iraqaunt' anagrammed gives 'QUATRAIN'.

'from' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for quatrain that I've seen before include "Poem of four lines found in a quart" , "Four-line stanza" , "Type of verse with four lines" , "poetic lines" , "Poet may write it" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
