Have letters 3rd E 7th A 11th Y

Can't get several in this top left hand corner folks.

The Mod-ish first word suggests some connection with Scottish/Highland Mod (the Gaelic equivalent of an Eistedfodd).
Reckon last bit is .....ant (worker) ry (line).
But am probably barking up totally wrong tree!?

It's always good to give the clue - then those without a copy can help. The letter count and details of any you have are useful too.

PS Using ???A??B??C is easier to read.

OK. will try posting again.

Obviously I'm a novice at this ( that, or the posting instructions need to be more explicit!)

Clue is " Modish poem contains a line on worker, perhaps without style"
11 letters

I have - - E - - - A - - - Y

Gee - thanks Mamya.

Doh! Well at lest I got the 'Ant' bit right.

( Scottish Mod obviously too esoteric for Times!)

Maybe they'll sneak that in at a later date.
