But bowed his comely head
Down as upon a bed.Andrew Marvell

Hugo, like a priest, always has his head bowed -- bowed so low that he can see nothing except his own navel.
Victor Hugo
But no. Too soon I voun' my charm abroke.
Noo comely soul in white like her—
Noo soul a-steppen light like her—
An' nwone o' comely height like her—
Went by; but all my grief agean awoke.William Barnes
And, hungry for the old, familiar ways,
I turned aside and bowed my head and wept.Claude McKay
Out in deep space the planets sweep, inexorable, along their splendid orbits. Maxine bowed her head. From now on she would take the gods' dictation.
Helen Garner
I walk unseen
On the dry smooth-shaven green,
To behold the wandering moon,
Riding near her highest noon,
Like one that had been led astray
Through the heav'n's wide pathless way,
And oft, as if her head she bowed,
Stooping through a fleecy cloud.John Milton
