Bend the knee (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

kneel

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">bend the knee</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(thesaurus)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for kneel that I've seen before include "Get down to be knighted" , "Rest in prayer" , "Crouch down" , "Prepare for prayer?" , "Go down on bended legs" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
