Azed 2,410 – Rama’s Nag
The instructions for this puzzle were as follows:
Clues are of two types. In each of the acrosses, the cryptic
part leads to the answer to be entered and the definition part
leads to an anagram of that answer. In each of the downs, the
definition part leads to the answer to be entered and the (cryptic)
remainder leads to an anagram of that answer. All grid entries
and anagrams thereof are in the Chambers Dictionary (2014),
except for two proper names (one biblical and one geographical).
Bracketed numbers refer throughout to grid entries. Anagrams of
entries at 15 Across and 6 Down each consist of two words.
