Keening

The mournful sound of keening filled the air as the funeral procession made its way to the cemetery.

As the fog rolled in, a keening foghorn warned ships of the treacherous rocks ahead.

The character in the novel was portrayed as a keening figure, forever yearning for redemption and forgiveness.

The widow sat alone in her empty house, keening softly for the husband she had lost.

As the funeral procession passed by, the sound of keening echoed through the streets.
