I believe this clue is a quadruple definition!!

'outrage' is the first definition.
(I know that outrage can be written as shock)

'the feelings' is the second definition.
The answer is an example.

'with' acts as a link.

'a mass' is the third definition.
(shock is a kind of mass)

'of' acts as a link.

'untidy hair' is the fourth definition.
'shock' can be an answer for 'hair' (I've seen this before). I'm unsure of the 'untidy' bit.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for shock that I've seen before include "old dog is > sixty!" , "Appal" , "Unpleasant surprise" , "Outrageous" , "Perturb" .)
