Like to have some help with these , please--been looking too long .
29a Having properly passed away, gets carried away again, perhaps, for practice ???e???e? (9)
22d Mary had what's playing around with ten more
l?m???t (7) Possibly Lambent but why?
25d Sounds as if the patriot may have to go through with it like this ?i???e (6)

[eddiebun]

Lambent can mean abundant !

[mac44]

29a. Rehearses.

[eddiebun]

Actually I've just looked back at the dictionary and now can't find that definition - just come home from work - very tired !

[slaney]

Thanks mac44 , and eddiebun-- I'm surprised you have the energy to reply at all!
Now have 25d Pierce.

[Christiana]

I think that lambent may refer to the 'playing around'. One definition is of flames lightly playing on the surface of something.

[eddiebun]

I obviously shouldn't be replying as I am hallucinating definitions !

[mac44]

You're correct with Lambent.
Mary had a little LAMB + anag of TEN.

[slaney]

Yes , Christiana , that's it thanks.
Not Pierce but Pearse.
I often have Google "mirages" when I swear I have seen a reference to something that doesn't exist.

[eddiebun]

I have just got grannyhelen's last famous couple question though - I think - Anagram of renaming molar ( and doesn't include the " and "

Morgana (and ) Merlin

It did involve getting the Scrabble set out !

[slaney]

Well done ... I'm sure she'll be pleased!
