The villagers avoided the dearn at the edge of the moor, calling it a place of old curses.

She was dearning the locket in the drawer when she heard footsteps on the stairs.

She dearned her grandmother's woolen sweater by carefully stitching the hole closed.

Her dearnful glance across the dim hall hinted at truths she had kept hidden for years.

I grew up near Bolton-on-Dearne and still visit the old market every summer.
