And, hungry for the old, familiar ways,
I turned aside and bowed my head and wept.

Hugo, like a priest, always has his head bowed -- bowed so low that he can see nothing except his own navel.
Victor Hugo

Then suddenly the Mole felt a great Awe fall upon him, an awe that turned his muscles to water, bowed his head, and rooted his feet to the ground. It was no panic terror — indeed he felt wonderfully at peace and happy — but it was an awe that smote and held him and, without seeing, he knew it could only mean that some august Presence was very, very near. With difficulty he turned to look for his friend and saw him at his side cowed, stricken, and trembling violently. And still there was utter silence in the populous bird-haunted branches around them; and still the light grew and grew.Kenneth Grahame
But bowed his comely head
Down as upon a bed.Andrew Marvell
