17 Down: Make a suggestion: take work into enclosure. (8)

_R_P_U_D

The answer is PROPOUND butI cannot quite work out how.

I have enclosure=Pound
and
work =op

but that leaves me one "R" letter short, and I can't quite put it together. Can someone please help?

Thanks in advance

Thank you Scorpijo for that speedy answer, which unfortunately I did not see on that earlier thread. I guess I just hadn't thought in terms of Latin. The missing letter R was short for recipe, the latin for take. Thanks also to Sam1960
