If you want the secondary text on the same line,
here are 3 ways to do that:
txt2 <- "(Von Mises distribution)"
txt3 <- "Von Mises distribution"
plot(1:10, type='n')
legend(4,2, legend =
bquote(.(txt) == .(obv)*degree~~.(txt2)))
legend(4,4, legend =
bquote(.(txt) == .(obv)*degree~~group( "(", list(.(txt3)), ")" )))
legend(4,6, legend =
bquote(.(txt) == .(obv)*degree~~bgroup( "(", list(.(txt3)), ")" )))
The second and third just produce slightly nicer (I think) parentheses.
For the two-line display use Baptiste's suggestion.
(Note that you can't use \n in plotmath expressions, as per help page.)

Re: [R] another superscript problem
Hi,
this seems to work,
plot.new()
legend("topleft", legend=as.expression(c(bquote(.(txt) ==
.(obv)*degree), "Von Mises distribution")))
