Etymology: Etymology tree English solemn Middle English -ly English -ly English solemnly From solemn + -ly.

  1. In a solemn manner.

    “And yet, though the happiness may be unenduring, what heart, though seared by time and worldly care, can fail to sympathise with those emotions of early life? In after years there are none such. They are the high noon of earthly joy. After them, life goes on decayingly and solemnly to its shadowy sunset.”
