12a) Long words bothered him (4) and 14d) His 2 featured in King James version, and Ben Jonson masques (10) -E-R-B-I-O.
I don't know whether the answer to question 2 (i.e I have Lutes) has any bearing on the second clue.
Many thanks for any suggestions.

[frugalfred]

Alfonso Ferrabosco the younger (1575–1628), English composer, son of Alfonso the elder, also a singer, and performer on the lute and viol.

14d Possibly Ferrabosco?- he wrote the music for one of Jonson's masques.

Will try and find some reference to King James version

[frugalfred]

Nevel (instrument)
The King James Version renders the word into English as psaltery or viol , and the Book of Common Prayer renders it lute

Court of King James mentioned here...
