Joy, being altogether wanting, — Sorrow

"I have, as when the sun doth light a storm, Buried this sigh in wrinkle of a smile: But sorrow, that is couchd in seeming gladness, Is like that mirth fate turns to sudden sadness."

"The pain shown by others and later understood doesn’t hurt as deeply as the pain one feels firsthand and then witnesses."

"Sinks my sad soul with sorrow to the grave."

"Wherever sorrow is, relief would be: If you do sorrow at my grief in love, By giving love, your sorrow and my grief were both extermind."

"If man were sufficient for man, there would be no need for religion. If there were no evils from which man could not rescue his brother, there would be no need for a Saviour; if no sorrows under which man could not sustain his fellow man, there would be no need of a Divine Comforter. But it is a grief, a care like yours, which makes religion a reality. Carry it to the throne of grace, and see if there you do not find mercy to pardon and grace to help in time of need."

"Each new morn, New widows howl, new orphans cry, new sorrows Strike heaven on the face, that it resounds As if it felt with Scotland and yelld out Like syllable of dolour."
