Explanations please!
16ac - Drunk has fever,also rum.(4,4,4) it must be "hold sway over" but I don't get the "rum " clue.
10 dn - Bird of prey disfigures face of hare-hunting hound (5,7) , it looks like "Marsh harrier" but again I don't see the first part of the clue.

19a half seas over - anagram (rum) of has fever also

10d disfigures = mars face (front) of hare = h

Verbix

16 ac is HALF SEAS OVER (phrase means drunk; anag of HAS FEVER ALSO).
10dn: MARSH HARRIER is right. MARS = disfigures; H = face (1st letter) of HARE: and HARRIER is a breed of hunting dog.
