a 7-9-7 about an obscure word

Threnody

The threnody that was played
at the fallen hero's burial
brought tears to many an eye.



Obscure Word 7-9-7 writing prompt entry
Writing Prompt
It's that time again! Time to pull out those ol' dictionaries and find a word that we rarely (if ever!) hear used and write a 7-9-7 that makes us WANT to use it!! Seriously, make us laugh! Make us impressed at your word prowess! Shock our eyebrows into our hairline! But just make us vote for yours! :) :)
A 7-9-7 is a three-line poem such that:

first line -- seven syllables
second line -- nine syllables
third line -- seven syllables


My choice of a number of words that I came across-some of which I'm still working on. Not sure if it's the most obscure word, but it spoke to me. Thanks to Photopeb for use of the picture.
