Woman's mealtime prayer (5)
I believe the answer is:
grace
This clue is a double definition.
'woman's' is the first definition.
'mealtime prayer' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
(Other definitions for grace that I've seen before include "Old batsman" , "Before dinner, one may have this" , "'Amazing - - '" , "Favour - a short prayer" , "Meal blessing" .)
