An example of a frame narrative among the options you provided is 2. "1,001 Nights." In "1,001 Nights," also known as "The Arabian Nights," the main story revolves around Scheherazade, who tells a series of interconnected stories to her husband, King Shahryar, to delay her execution. This creates a frame narrative, as the overarching story (Scheherazade's storytelling) encompasses various individual tales.
