Iq 1775

Help please.

1d. In light shoes outwardly, poet’s declared missing along with the rest (6, 2 words)
6d. I see graduates circulating beads (5)
27d. Takes place in magic: a bristly process (6)
35d. Ed’s to hurry Bill up leaving Troy (5)

How many clashes are there? Have not found one yet.

Thanks.

6 Sabha, beads . Bas/BAs, graduates (Bachelor of Arts) and Ha, I see, circulating, reversed.

1 And All, the rest

[ProfessorMaisie]

6d Poet's declared = 'sed' which is missing from sANDALLed.
27d IS ('takes place') in ART ('magic') + A
35d archaic for 'run' - (t)ENNER reversed.

[Neveracrossword]

35 Renne, an old word (Ed, Edmund Spenser). Tenner, ten pound note, bill, oses the T, TRoy and is reversed (up).
27 Arista, to do with bristles.
I think there are four clashes.

[ProfessorMaisie]

sorry, that's 1d (you've already got 6d).

[ProfessorMaisie]

Yes, 4 clashes.

[hankir]

Thanks NAC and ProfessorM.
Sabha means Assembly in Hindi.
I still have to solve 1a, 5d and 19d.

I have one clash in Row 6 now and possibly two.

The only word for ghoul I know is feind. Have not encountered one going north from the key.

[hankir]

Typo. Meant Fiend , not feind.

[teenieleek]

Clashes in 5dn/16ac and 19dn/23ac I think.

[ProfessorMaisie]

And 25ac/26d, hankir.

[ProfessorMaisie]

1a 'spaces' is enough without 'sunken' (but it's there amongst the defs in Chambers) 'have state of' = ARE + A + S
5D is another ghoul - POA = 'grass' around OK
19 is an odd word - change ag ['silver'] in ENGagEMENT for O+U

[hankir]

Thank you Teenieleek, ProfessorM.
I have 23a, 25a and 39a clashes.
Still trying to solve 5d.

Finding endgame tough.

[ProfessorMaisie]

Check out the post directly above yours, hankir.

[ProfessorMaisie]

I took the simple approach to the endgame - just went around the grid correcting the 4 clashes, and corrected the 4th one a 2nd time to suggest a key, reading down the way (but I didn't take much time thinking about it, so there might be something more interesting to do... I hope there is).

[hankir]

Thanks ProfessorM.
Sunken confused me in 1a.
I had Abune, not Abuna; making it difficult to solve.
I'll try to solve the endgame per your suggestion.

You need to highlight “what the dawn brings” (3,6 but split 4,5).
