Woman resting; driving away
I believe the answer is:
dispelling
'driving away' is the definition.
('dispel' can be a synonym of 'drive away')
'woman resting' is the wordplay.
'woman' becomes 'Di' (short for Diana).
'resting' becomes 'spelling' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'di'+'spelling'='DISPELLING'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for dispelling that I've seen is " driving off".)
