Explanation:

1. For "larks", the phrase "play larks" (from the text "chose to play larks") matches "play mischief" in meaning (both refer to playful pranks).
2. "Trifle" in the text ("let the trifle stand") means a small matter/amount, so it pairs with "small amount".
3. "Common clay" (from "too sacred for poor common clay") refers to ordinary people, matching "ordinary man".
4. "Breaking the bill" (context of payment) aligns with "giving change" (handling money transactions).

Answer:

• larks: play mischief
• trifle: small amount
• common clay: ordinary man
• breaking the bill: giving change
