Answer:

Doleful is an adjective which means that it describes a noun. Similar words include: dreary, forlorn gloomy, grieving, lamentable, melancholy, mournful, pitiful, plaintive, sad, sorrowful. It was a very doleful day for Mary when she had to leave her friend behind. Lament is a verb. It means to grieve or to bemoan the loss of something. Frank lamented the death of his beloved cat. Woe is a noun. Other words meaning the same thing are misfortune, sorrow, suffering, grief. misery. Woe to the person who breaks his promise to me. Their woes became unbearable to handle.
Pressure Safety valve and Pressure Relief Valve are essentially the same. When fitted on a pressure vessel they limit the internal pressure to specified limits. When the pressure exceeds a set value they open to release the pressure. Some types will maintain the pressure (Like the pressure regulator on a pressure cooker) others will release all the pressure. Temperature Safety Valves are used in boiler type of vessels containing a boiling liquid, which generates the pressure (Again like a pressure cooker). Usually there is an equilibrium between the pressure and the temperature. In such applications a temperature responsive valve is used to control the inside pressure to safe levels. If based on thermal expansion, they can regulate. Otherwise a fusible alloy just melts and releases all pressure in one go.
