tremblingly
In shaking manner
Tremblingly means in a trembling manner—with shaking or quivering, whether from fear, cold, excitement, or weakness.
The word is literary and somewhat old-fashioned: She tremblingly reached for the envelope containing the test results.
It describes both physical shaking and the emotional state that causes it.
