In a feeble, languid manner; without vigor or activity; as, to attack or defend faintly.

With a feeble flame; as, a torch burns faintly.

With a feeble light; as, the candle burns faintly.

With little force; as, to breathe faintly.

Without force of representation; imperfectly; as, to describe faintly what we have seen.

In a low tone; with a feeble voice; as, to speak faintly.

Without spirit or courage; timorously. He faintly now declines the fatal strife.
