Explanation

The second part of the sentence (beginning with that it) provides an explanation to the proposition in the first part of the sentence. Proposition can be confusion (‘obfuscation’ in option 2) or a simple thought (‘contemplation’ in option 4) from which man parts. “Every man parts from that contemplation (thought) is more cogent with the latter part of the sentence than every man parts from that “obfuscation” (confusion). Hence, (4) is the answer.
