Solution
✅ Correct Option: 4
Said to becomes told the crowd, and told is not followed by to. A universal truth keeps the present tense, so rises stays. First person pronouns shift to third person, giving them, they and themselves throughout, and the second clause takes a repeated that. Only option four applies all these changes consistently.
