Wilt in passage (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sag

'wilt' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'in passage' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'SAG' is hidden within 'passage'.

(Other definitions for sag that I've seen before include "Spinach as used in Indian cookery" , "Lose energy" , "Slump" , "Drop" , "Sinking" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
