The term "lachrymose" has been employed in literature to evoke a sense of mournful or tearful expression, characterizing both tone and demeanor across various contexts. In some instances, it is used to describe a vocal quality imbued with pathos—as seen when a character chants in a tearful manner [1] or when a beggar's voice carries an air of sorrow [2]. The adjective also captures visible manifestations of grief or disinterest, such as a character’s facial expression that appears tearful [3] or even a general making a sorrowful face [4]. Moreover, authors have invoked "lachrymose" to underline a broader emotional or cultural critique, comparing modern sentiments to those of the past [5] or highlighting the melodramatic air in literary romances [6][7]. This versatility in usage—from describing vocal intonation to depicting physical expressions—illustrates how "lachrymose" has enriched literary portrayals of melancholy, whether emphasizing ironic dramatic flair [8] or subtle personal lament [9][10].
