Usage : {
Glad }, {

Delighted expresses a much higher degree of pleasure than glad .
Gratified always refers to a pleasure conferred by some human agent ,
and the feeling is modified by the consideration that we owe it in part to another .
A person may be glad or delighted to see a friend ,
and gratified at the attention shown by his visits .
