A poetic or archaic word meaning frosty, cold, or resembling frost.
From 'frost' plus the suffix '-y' (meaning 'having the quality of'). This formation follows a common English pattern where nouns become adjectives, though 'frory' is now mostly obsolete in favor of 'frosty.'
Medieval and Renaissance poets loved 'frory' because it sounded more elegant and mysterious than plain 'frosty'—writers often created or preferred old-fashioned variants to make their work sound more literary and grand.
