Answer:

incessantly: He changed his ministers incessantly, and on mere caprice. The lightning was flickering incessantly, but she heard no thunder. His highly nervous organization made his feelings acute, and his brain incessantly active

anguish: A look of anguish crossed Jonny's face. Terrible anguish struck her heart, she felt a dreadful ache as if something was being torn inside her and she were dying. I try not to anguish over the little things. A look of anguish crossed the basketball player's face when he hurt his ankle.

derided: Not only sobbing, for which he isn't often derided today. The subject matter is the much derided coastal landscape of Essex. They were hunted down and killed as animals, their sacred sites desecrated and their beliefs derided.

pious: They were to be applied to pious uses. He was revered by many as a saint because he was so pious. They were pious foundations created for mutual benefit and for purposes of charity.

imperturbable:With her imperturbable calm she did not begin to speak in front of the valet. It is not too much to say that his imperturbable equanimity, his serene bonhomie kept the host together.
