I am struggling to understand what is meant by the first two words of the D instruction. My OED is quite old and does not give the first word. Google has not helped either, but I think the word might mean nothing more complicated than "identical". If this is correct, I have found 7 identical letters which fit with 15 across, but this does not help with the river, so I have not coloured it. If I try to colour it, there are several alternative routes it could take, unless I am missing some subtle part of the D instruction, which is entirely possible. Others seem to have coloured the river, so I am guessing that they have gleaned more from the D instruction than I have. Any hints would be appreciated.
