I’m not even sure what it means. I’m guessing elevate. Perhaps in a specific way. Emotionally or spiritually. Let me see what Merriam says…
Well close enough.
“To fill with joy or pride”.

I dunno. At a guess: Either a variant or old form of TROVE, or a long boring walk.

I have a high confidence level that someone with a brain much bigger than mine could figure out what your first 4 guesses were, given the 6th word.dwarde said:I managed to make an easy one hard.

Given of course, that all the yellows in your first 3 guesses, are the same letters.
Always a fascinating puzzle. Thanks!
