Answer:
Up rose old Barbara Frietchie then,/ Bowed with her fourscore years and ten;
Explanation:
The poem tells the story of an old woman named Barbara Frietchie who did not oblige the Confederate forces by lowering her American flag when they came to Maryland where she lived.
She was very bold as can be seen in her action of picking up an American flag and hanging it over her roof top for everyone to see. In the poem, she is first described as rising up. This is then followed by a description of her age which showed that she was an advanced woman.
