slumbrous
Heavy with drowsiness
Slumbrous means sleepy, drowsy, or conducive to sleep.
A slumbrous afternoon invites napping; a slumbrous voice lulls listeners.
The word is literary and old-fashioned, appearing mostly in poetry and elevated prose: the slumbrous heat of summer, her slumbrous eyes.
Also spelled slumberous.
