Softly (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gently

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">softly</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know that softly can be written as gently)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for gently that I've seen before include "Mildly, kindly" , "Not violently" , "in a peaceful manner?" , "Softly, delicately" , "Lightly, mildly, softly" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard and The Telegraph.
