The chilling keening of the banshee sent shivers down the spines of those who heard it.

The women gathered in the cemetery, their voices intertwining in a mournful keening that honored the departed.

The keening of the grieving widow touched the hearts of everyone present, evoking a sense of empathy and compassion.
