An archaic adverb derived from the now-obsolete adjective 'buxom,' which originally meant 'obedient' or 'compliant.' In its adverbial form, it described an action done in a yielding, submissive, or pliant manner. The modern meaning of 'buxom' (plump and attractive) is a later development, and the adverb is no longer used in contemporary English.
