With respect to the folk above, could this not be -Ecco (see!) - 'cc' (hundreds, in) 'EO' (game; "Even-Odd")https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/eccohttps://www.tradgames.org.uk/games/roulette.htm^The second pic down is "...an antique EO table..."

14 ecce - Latin for behold/see

9d stung  T (knight's end)in sung (poem)

CC (hundreds) in EE

The EE meaning in Gaming terms is "Energy Elf"

Question Author

Yes it is Lie-in-King, ECCO fits with the crossing entries.

The other one is STONG (archaic/poetic 'stung') 'song' is the 'poem'.

Well done L-i K and Prof!

Could you both please have a look at the latest post in Colours and see what you think? 

Help please ...... 15d.  Weather's dull, penetrating wild lilac.  (8)

Climatal - 'mat' (dull, in) anag 'lilac'

dull = MAT in side letters of LILAC

Climatal
