I think I am missing something here. This puzzle has the usual devious clues but 22D reads "Brilliant, receiving silver (1,4)" As I have A?A?E the obvious answer appears to be "AGATE" but this is 5, not 1,4.Any ideas, anyone?

Many thanks,Mamalynne. I completely missed that even though I had worked out the quotation AND the title of the poem. Complete lack of joined-up thinking...
