Crossword Genius

Yes, cast managed rapture (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ecstasy

'rapture' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'yes cast managed' is the wordplay.
'managed' is an anagram indicator.
'yes'+'cast'='yescast'
'yescast' anagrammed gives 'ECSTASY'.

(Other definitions for ecstasy that I've seen before include "Extreme happiness" , "Feeling of great rapture" , "Feeling of great joy" , "Overwhelming happiness" , "State of bliss or euphoria" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
