rile

What was it about Wicked that got critics so riled up a decade ago?

I was a little riled at first myself, but the second and last lady who came out put me in excellent humor.

Jim Fenton's a good-natered man when he ain't riled, but he'd sooner fight nor eat when he is.

I was considerably riled up just about then, and could have laid down my life rather than have let him escape.

Gran'dad's got a awful temper when he's good an' riled, but usual' he's still as a mouse.

This riled Bob up awful, and he came right at me, like a mad bull at a red shawl.
