There's a mind blowing introduction to this but the relevant information is 'Most clues contain a misprint of one letter in the definition.'
With that in mind,
34A Pout - married with little support(4)
?e??.

Might we be looking for a port?
or perhaps a post?

BEAT - assigned 'post' or regular path or habitual round: a policeman's beat.

It's a bit of a long shot but am I on the right track?

Could be, but where's the married with little support?

I am sure the theme is Poets? So maybe worth a thought.

Hi Arlene,

I've never done this crossword but the thought occurred to me that the answer could be weld - wed [married] containing 'l' [little] but I can't find a synonym for weld based on the four-letter first part of the clue...

Regards,

Caravaggio

Thanks C, thought of that but nearest I can get is 'pour', not quite synonymous

Hi Guys & Girls,

If you look at the clue - married with little support(4)
Married = WED
Little support = s
= WEDS but I can't link it to the misprinted clue.

Over to you Mamya and Carravagio!!!
