The best clue to the meaning of "bore" in the last line is B. "they lifted me up."
This is because "bore me over" suggests a sense of being carried or transported, which aligns with the idea of being lifted up. The context implies movement or being taken somewhere, which helps clarify the meaning of "bore" in this instance.
