Detailed Solution

Concept: The quote is about a man named Thubali Kayini who was a strong man. So we see that the person in question is Thubali Kayini. Thus, Tubal Cain is the subject. The motto is ‘he was a man of power’. This section is about Thubali Kayini. Therefore, the correct answer is to choose 1.
Choosing 2 is wrong because the ‘strong man’ is Tubal Cain’s definition. It will not be the title of the sentence.
In selecting 3, the title cannot say ‘Tabali Cain was’ because only T tubal Cain is mentioned. The inclusion of the verb (existing) and the subject (a) , are not required.
Option 4 is incorrect because only 'Tuban Cain' is the subject.
Hence, option 1 is correct.
