26 I can see intently - determination, + ermit + E?
in termit tently

intently = with determination

termit(e)
Try again -
Intently + termit(e) = intermittently
25a) SWEAR WORD = offensive to some

wanting to sleep around, mostly = drows(y) reversed = SWORD
without clothes = put WEAR on the inside

S wear WORD
p.s. for 25a) you missed out around from the clue
