Emily Dickinson Lexicon

CLAM'OR, v.i.

To utter loud sounds, or outcries; to talk loud; to utter loud voices repeatedly; to vociferate, as an individual; to utter loud voices, as a multitude; to complain; to make importunate demands. – Shak. Bacon. Those who most loudly clamor for liberty do not most liberally grant it. – Anon. “Clamor your tongues,” in Shakspeare, if intended to mean, “stop from noise,” is not English. Perhaps the word was clam, or intended for a derivative.
