be in a state of grief; be surrounded with griefs; be walled in by one's own worries; find oneself in a helpless situation; seclude oneself in the castle of grief; wallow in a slough of despondency
The loneliness of your solitude walk , the plaintive whine of wild geese , the muddyroad , the setting sun at dusk , make you sit in gloomy mood , sighingtearfully.
