Correct Answer: In course by time,
Solution : The error lies in the first option.
"In course by time" is not a grammatically correct phrase. It should be "over the course of time", which means something that is happening gradually to convey the idea that he became wise enough to realise the mistakes of his past life.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "Over the course of time, he was wise enough to realise the mistakes of his past life."
