the sound rage makes when whispering would be wasted on the situation
means To shout or roar in a deep, loud voice, the way an angry person or a large animal does when volume becomes the whole point.
from From Old English bylgan, 'to roar,' likely echoic — a word built to mimic the very sound it names. It's a probable cousin of 'bell,' both descended from a Germanic root tied to bellowing and loud noise; the bellows that pumps air into a fire shares the same family, all of them things that swell up and let loose.
