I have read no speech of recent years which has gladdened my heart more than that.
I was gladdened by the announcement of further assistance for students of dance and drama to help with maintenance costs.
I was gladdened that that was substantially on the basis of cross-party agreement.
One of the things which gladdened my heart was to see the bipartisan policy was still fully in operation.
I and my colleagues are gladdened by the widespread acceptance of the arguments and conclusions of the report.
Obviously, the steel men will be gladdened to know that they have been judged and that their future has been predicted from the consumers' point of view.
That lessened my labors and gladdened my life.
