The correct answer is "D: Raúl, Rafael and Federico".

Pablo Neruda describes various details of his everyday life when he was living in Spain (He is Chilean). In lines 18-23, he mentions:

  • "Remember, Raul?"
  • "Eh, Rafael?"
  • "Federico, do you remember?"

After these 3 lines, he says: "Brother, my brother!" in order to refer to the later 3 as his brothers.
