25: see post 98. Not mathematical AFAICT. Maybe you meant 26 for the mathematical?

Nuit sure if anyone ils still hère. I really enjoyed rhis puzzle. All donne, appreciated the help on here on a few.

One answer puzzles me. I think i have 15a. A cheeky sort of hidden hidden in 1-4-1 if I am right. But where is the definition in the clue?

Thanks v much, Geeker. Very helpful. (& Chrise & Buddy - 15 is indeed excellent now I understand it)

Yes, I meant is 26 mathematical? I can't parse the answer I have.

Which then just leaves 19???

Barry, 26 can be math-related. The last 2 letters are tricky.
Definition "in grid-like pattern"
Parses as 5 ("ancient Greek") inside 3 ("came first").

19: defn. "fruit". Parses as a thematic type of 2 (5) inside "compared with" (2). "Eats" is the containment indicator.
