Second cousins share the same great grandparents so the answer is Yes children of Great Aunts or Uncles.

Re-word NEITHER.
The children of your great-uncles and great-aunts are your parents' 1st cousins so, for your second cousins, you're looking for the grandchildren of your great-uncles and great-aunts
