Laid on the praise (6)

I believe the answer is:

gushed

(Other definitions for gushed that I've seen before include "Flowed out strongly, water or words" , "Poured out or spoke extravagantly" , "Enthused" , "Spurted out as from fountain or oil well" , "Effused" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
