As is typical of most Midgaard commands, Bow searches for <thing> in a specific order, starting with the room you're in, then your worn or wielded equipment, then your inventory. So, if there's a box in the room, and a box in your inventory, the command "bow box" will refer to the one in the room, not your inventory. You'd need to use "bow 2.box" for the latter.

Bow can be modified with an arbitrary word of your choice. Usually you'll use an intensifying adverb as shown in the examples above. Note that Bow does not use this modifier as a search specifier when looking for <thing>. Instead Bow displays this modifier via the Game channel. Thus you can "bow bashfully", "bow formally", and so on. You can also "bow 18373649" or "bow toothpaste-like", so, please don't. It's up to you to get the syntax right.
