    Wrong. The correct answer is actually the third option 3) Grandmother, almanac, stove, child, tears, and house.

    First two options are incorrect because if you take a look at the three line envoi, the words "September and Rain" from the first option and the words "Kitchen, September, and Rain" from the second option is no where to be found.

    Fourth option is also incorrect because the word "kitchen" is also no where to be found in the three line envoi.
