16a) In ecstacy about Sade Novel? The opposite agreed (8) -S-E-T-D. I'm thinking Assented,
Anag of Sade, but can't see the rest of the wordplay.
Also, 27a) One's squeezed between two legs? It's enough to make one 11. (11 = shed a tear).(5) O-I-N, it's obviously Onion. are the legs On on. Maybe a cricket term? I don't really know.
I need some insight please

Les40 - Chambers has one meaning of 'send' as 'to rouse[someone] to ecstasy'.
I've seen 'sent' used in this context before.

In ecstacy about Sade Novel? The opposite -
Assented, is 'sade novel'about sent(ecstacy)

which is The opposite of - ecstacy about Sade Novel.
hope that makes sense.
