two clues giving pain
23a Public servant met twice in Coriolanus(8) W*A*****
and 15a Plain cities n obstacle to this king(8) A*R***E*
Curiously enough the other three corners have come out nicely.

Thanks very much Two really tricky ones. I did wonder earlier about wealsman but it seemed too literal. Does the word appear in the play?

OED:
Coriolanus (1623) ii. i. 53 Meeting two such Weales men as you are (I cannot call you Licurgusses).
