 Not necesarily. You can watch a scene from a movie, who is identical to what is written in a book and still they have a very different influence on you. . . 
When reading the passage you highligted, I did not feel it was to honey sweet, but it did not move me either. Still when I see that "bowing scene" I think it is awful. . .
