[edit]unwishfully (comparative more unwishfully, superlative most unwishfully)
- (rare) In an unwishful manner; without wishing.
- 1902, Mary Linskill, In Exchange for a Soul, page 126:
- Again we descend, perhaps to the dreary shore of some dead sea of life, where we may wander on unhopefully, nay, even unwishfully. We would lie down and die if we could do so sinlessly; and we wonder that sin should be in the wish.
