Sentence 3- Sentence Q talks about how it is not possible for the mind to relate to anything other than ideas. A similar point to the one stated in R i.e. the mind only deals with ideas.

Sentence 4- Sentence S is a conclusion to the paragraph, as it states that since the mind relates only to ideas (something discussed in the previous lines) therefore, it is not correct to think that the mind actually can ponder reality.

Hence, the correct order is PRQS and the correct answer is option 3.
