More word squares - might be the odd toughie or sneaky one included. Usual deal - I give you the clues (not in the correct order evil ), you solve the squares.

-1. Grey, actor
Ages
To a smaller amount
Musical instrument

-2. Old testament prophet
Anagram of the other clue that is an anagram of this
Mountain lion
Anagram of the other clue that is an anagram of this

If you get the answers to clues #1 and #3, they can be arranged in two ways. One way leave two pretty well hopeless possibilities, the other way will give you three of the 4 letters requires for the anagrams. P.S. I think he's normally regarded as a minor prophet

-3. Classic SF novel
Dutch cheese
Whimper
Over again

-4. Outsider, Johnny-come-lately
Put together from various sources
Groups of nations under the rule of a single person, oligarchy, or sovereign state
Scurry about, run hastily
Vote back into office
Collectively, the large internal organs of the body
Brings to a stop

… 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. Therefore
"Young Frankenstein" character
Raised platform
Having a showy, pretentious manner relating to the creative skills
Stringed musical instrument
Collection of neutrons and protons surrounded by electrons
Business transaction
Unspecified number, amount etc

Enjoy!

Thanks, Sondi!

Nice try, but the other arrangement makes for two words that can be found in the dictionary think

(My fault for not specifying that)

Thanks, Lex. In the old days there used to be a pantechnicon (semi to our transatlantic cousins) full of presents - now if I'm lucky I'll get a pair of socks. (If I'm unlucky I'll get two pairs) sad

Still, I'm not one to complain...
Never have been...
