I think the answer is A .
No this is not the krusty crab this is Patrick.
A is a infinitive, so we can take that out. B is past, and D is future tense.
The answer would be C because rises is the correct from of present.
C) Put sentence 2 before sentence 1.
This would be the best option because sentence 2 introduces the tea and the earl. Sentence 1 refers to the earl when it says, "how the earl". Since the specific earl is not named in this sentence, we know that the earl should be named earlier in the passage. Also, sentence number 1 introduces the idea of various legends. Sentence 3 introduces ones of those legends; therefore, sentence 1 would need to be before sentence 3 as well.
