Chronic correctly parses the following:

> Chronic.parse('4 days after start of month at 1pm')
=> 2021-10-05 13:00:00 +0200

However, the crontab the following generates:

every 1.month, at: '4 days after start of month at 1pm' do
  rake "execute_some_task"
end

Is incorrect:

0 13 1 * * /bin/bash -l -c 'cd /home/path/to/project && RAILS_ENV=development bundle exec rake execute_some_task --silent'

As it schedules the job for the 1st day of every month instead.

This example is just to simplify the issue for illustrative purposes, in reality I'm attempting to have the job run 4 days before the end of the month, but that comes with its own nuances.
