Stuck on the last one ie 16down They are exemplified in the letters of Ms Godden A?C?N?E?S Can only thinkg of Asccenders or Accenters! Can anyone help please?
I agree with Ahearer that ascenders is likeliest, though I can't parse it other than that the reference to letters might be something to do with handwriting, and Rumer Godden wrote her books in longhand. There must be something better than that.
