'looked up to' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with human feelings as well as being past participle verbs.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?

'she came to' is the wordplay.
'she' becomes 'ros'.
'came to' becomes 'e' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'ros'+'e'='ROSE'

'be' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
