| As is so often the response to your questions... Do you have a context please? I have two different mental pictures of the sentence! |

| The person who wants to 'raise a loud cry against something' wants to protest something. Loudly! |

| Thank you RonBee:) You must be reading my mind:) Next time I will try to give the context to the phrase, but I just didn't want to influence (maybe badly) your explanation. Thank you once again:) |
