Submissively (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

meekly

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

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for meekly that I've seen before include "Submissively, gently" , "In a mild and submissive manner" , "In a compliant manner" , "In docile, obedient manner" , "In gentle, acquiescent manner" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Simplex) and the Evening Standard.
