Correct answer
himself
Why this answer is correct
The correct answer is option 4.
Myself is used when the subject is 'I'. Oneself is used as the object of a verb or preposition when this is the same as the subject of the clause and the subject is stated or understood as ‘one’. Itself is used for things. Himself is used as the object of a verb or preposition to refer to a male person or animal previously mentioned as the subject of the clause. Here, the subject is a male i.e 'my cousin'. So, option 4 is correct.
