Explanation:

To determine the correct option, we analyze each choice:

1. First option: States the entry is by Jack Sammon, editor William Morena, third volume, second edition, pages 59 - 120, multivolume work.
2. Second option: Incorrectly swaps author (Jack Sammon) and editor (William Morena), and volume (third vs second, edition third vs second).
3. Third option: Incorrectly swaps author and editor.
4. Fourth option: Incorrectly says the cited section is the work's title (should be "Flowers of Egypt") and misrepresents the multivolume/volume details.

The first option has consistent details: entry by Jack Sammon, editor William Morena, third volume, second edition, multivolume work with the cited section "Flowers of Egypt" on pages 59 - 120.
