Thanks for solving. I was hoping my clue was fair enough to the solver.

# 1 CHASED/CHASTE (hom)bw wrote:
1. Followed and proposed the virgin. (6)
CHASED(sounds like CHASTE)
# 5 TICKER (dd)
#4 SA(TELL)ITE
are all correct.
However, #10 STRAIN (dd) is incorrect. The correct answer for # 10 is -
10. Struggles singing a sequence of notes. (6) ---- PHRASE (like a musical phrase) as a hom of "frays" (struggles).
Set solved.
