Highlight the words or phrases that show action. Up rose old Barbara Frietchie then,
Bowed with her fourscore years and ten;
Bravest of all in Frederick town,
She took up the flag the men hauled down;
In her attic window the staff she set,
To show that one heart was loyal yet.

—“Barbara Frietchie,”
John Greenleaf Whittier

What happens after Barbara Frietchie takes up the flag the men hauled down?

She becomes bowed over with age.
She sets the flag in the attic window.
She rises up.
