Hold forth (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

orate

spout

'hold forth' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for orate that I've seen before include "Spout" , "Declaim or rant" , "Make a formal address" , "Speak publicly" , "Lecture" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, The Guardian, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Sun and The Wall Street Journal.
