Comfort in time of sorrow (6)

I believe the answer is:

solace

(Other definitions for solace that I've seen before include "Comfort in time of disappointment or sorrow" , "Comfort and reassurance" , "Comport" , "amusement" , "Kind of comfort - a close thing" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
