Deference or homage (9)
I believe the answer is:
obeisance
This clue is a double definition.
'deference' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'homage' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
(Other definitions for obeisance that I've seen before include "Deferential respect" , "great respect" , "Submissive respect" , "Deep bow or act of homage" , "show deference" .)
