Read the excerpt from Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë. NEED HELP ON THIS ASAP

"But I’ll not keep you sitting up late to-night,” said she [Mrs. Fairfax]; "it is on the stroke of twelve now, and you have been travelling all day: you must feel tired. If you have got your feet well warmed, I’ll show you your bedroom. I’ve had the room next to mine prepared for you; it is only a small apartment, but I thought you would like it better than one of the large front chambers: to be sure they have finer furniture, but they are so dreary and solitary, I never sleep in them myself.”

I thanked her for her considerate choice, and as I really felt fatigued with my long journey, expressed my readiness to retire. She took her candle, and I followed her from the room. . . .

When Mrs. Fairfax had bidden me a kind good-night, and I had fastened my door, gazed leisurely round, and in some measure effaced the eerie impression made by that wide hall, that dark and spacious staircase, and that long, cold gallery, by the livelier aspect of my little room, I remembered that, after a day of bodily fatigue and mental anxiety, I was now at last in safe haven. The impulse of gratitude swelled my heart, and I knelt down at the bedside, and offered up thanks where thanks were due; not forgetting, ere I rose, to implore aid on my further path, and the power of meriting the kindness which seemed so frankly offered me before it was earned.

Which phrase from the excerpt best reveals Jane’s reaction to Mrs. Fairfax’s behavior?

“had bidden me a kind good-night”

“effaced the eerie impression made by that wide hall”

“thanks where thanks were due”

“so frankly offered me before it was earned”
