English King Lear who wrote nonsense (6)
I believe the answer is:
edward
This could be a double definition.
'english king' is the first definition.
'edward' can be an answer for 'king' (I've seen this before). I am not sure about the 'english' bit.
'lear who wrote nonsense' is the second definition.
'edward' can be an answer for 'lear' (I've seen this before). I'm not certain of the rest of the definition.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for edward that I've seen before include "-- Scissorhands" , "I (1239-1307), II (1284-1327), III (1312-77), IV (1442-83), V (1470-83?), VI (1537-53), VII (1841-1910) or VIII (1894-1972)" , "Name of eight kings" , "-- Lear, poet" , "Name Lambert Simnel took when crowned" .)
