More word squares - might be the odd toughie included. Usual deal - I give you the clues (not in the correct order
), you solve the squares.
-1. Autocratic ruler or leader
Bird
Agreement
Cutting implement
-2. Subject of much admiration
Small valley
Ruler
Give attention or heed to
-3. Of great size or extent
Shakespearean character
(think "Othello")
Semisolid mass
Sound of bells
-4. Large area used for entertainment
Art form
Fend off
Meat prepared in a proscribed religious manner
Part of the Old Testament
… and now one for those who find the above far too easy. This one is not symmetrical - the across answers are different from the down answers, and (as you might have guessed) both sets of clues are mixed together.
-5. Turn down
Musical instrument
Small amount
Small bay or shoreline indentation
Gas
Brother
Flair
Brother
Enjoy, Rog
