Yes, Froeschlein, "pay" fits, too.

It's one of several verbs that go with obeisance.

E. A. Poe, describing the Raven's entry, used make:

Not the least obeisance made he,
Not a moment stopped or stayed he,
But with mein of Lord or Lady ...

... others might include offer, proffer, lend, give, do . I needed an "s" word, so I chose show.

Thanks.
