In a way that serves to console or comfort; with the quality of providing consolation or relief.
From consolatory (from Latin consolatorius) + -ily. This rare adverb form emphasizes the deliberate, intentional nature of providing comfort.
This word is delightfully archaic—it's like finding a vintage word that English speakers crafted to describe comfort offered as a deliberate remedy, much like how Victorians had specific words for nearly every emotional gesture.
