Explanation:

To solve the matching, we use the story's details:

• "His mouth became the Brahmin (priests)" → match mouth to Priests.
• "his arms were made into the Warrior" → match arms to Warriors.
• "his thighs the [Common] People" → match thighs to Common People.
• "from his feet the Servants were born" → match feet to Servants.

For the diagram:

• The mouth (facial area) should connect to Priests (already done in the image as shown, but for the remaining:
• Thighs (the leg - upper part) connect to Common People.
• Feet (lower part of legs) connect to Servants.
• Arms (the arm area) connect to Warriors (already done in the image as shown).

Answer:

• Thighs (the middle - lower body part) → Common People
• Feet (the lowest body part) → Servants
