Wish to take back (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rue

'wish to take back' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for rue that I've seen before include "Be regretful" , "Regret, be sorry for" , "Nice way" , "Bemoan" , "Deplore" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, the LA Times and The Wall Street Journal.
