Gravely, soberly (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

solemnly

I believe this is a double definition.

'gravely' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'soberly' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for solemnly that I've seen before include "Gravely and sedately" , "in formal and dignified way" , "In a formal and dignified manner" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
