Cried like a miserable fellow (5)

I believe the answer is:

lowed

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cried like a' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'miserable fellow' is the wordplay.
'miserable' becomes 'low' (synonyms).
'fellow' becomes 'ed' (I've seen this in other clues).
'low'+'ed'='LOWED'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for lowed that I've seen before include "How Jersey communicated" , "made noises like farm animals" , "Mooed" .)
