Spoke abusively to (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

insulted

'spoke abusively to' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for insulted that I've seen before include "Offended" , "Spoke rudely or abusively to" , "treated with scornful abuse" , "Treated with contempt" , "Affronted" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times and the Irish Times (Simplex).
