When we alter author's words, or add words which are not in the original text, we must put a pair of square brackets - [ ] around the change in our quotation. In this case, the brackets are put both in the first and second quotation, where the text is altered. The first and second option, therefore, correctly cite the source text.
The third example does not correctly cite the source text, as there is a misquotation - in the original text, the "last closet" is mentioned, while in a quotation, it is changed into "the last chamber", without putting the square brackets.
