blive (barrels [quickly]) ?

B(urning) [immediately] + live (now on Tv for eg)
cannot see where lost can come in. ?

Of course it is! I looked up blive before and read 'believe' (must get some new glasses!). 'Now lost' is because the word is archaic.
Many thanks!

So is 27d( Hard coda to overture penned by composer?) now 'beach'? Ie (overture)E in Johannes Sebastian? I suppose a beach is hard. The only aternative is 'beath' (old bathe).

I can't see it, nikki. For one thing, a "beach" isn't particularly hard, unless you're confusing it with "beech"...

Hi, Masouk! I have just looked up 'hard' in Chambers: one definition is 'a firm beach or foreshore'. So now we know!
