The Hungarians, when their king Ladislaus and bravest soldiers were slain by the Turks, Luctus publicus, &c.
In place of the very words of Virgil, Ubi luctus et pavor et plurima mortis imago, he wrote Ubi luctus regnant et pavor.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "luctus" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
