I am also struggling with those.
Sagas could be accounts, but don't understand the rest of it.
Roses perhaps for 9d

thanks for that - maybe AGA is abbreviation for a commander?
32d is lute

A substance, such as dried clay or cement, used to pack and seal pipe joints and other connections or coat a porous surface in order to make it tight

Thanks again - I'm really tired of the short words.
SS is ship-------aga is aturkish commander so aga held by ss =sagas
5d. sagas is correct-definition is accounts and an aga is a military or civil leader esp. Turkish

32d. lute is correct as it is both an instrument and a packing between joints

9d "bed of roses"
