The term 'tearful one' can be described by four different words: CRIER (5 letters), Niobe (5 letters), sobber (6 letters), and WEEPER (6 letters). CRIER is a person who cries out loudly, often in distress. Niobe was a figure in Greek mythology who wept for her children after they were killed. Sobber is someone who cries quietly and continuously. WEEPER is someone who sheds tears, usually due to sadness or grief. All of these words describe someone who is tearful, either through loud or quiet crying.
