Making pairs first -
Cadge & Mendicate (to beg for more food)
Exacerbate & provoke (to increase)
Satiate & Allay (to fulfill)
Clearly, the third pair fits the best into the blank.
Edit: Isn't it supposed to say Mendicant and not Mendicate?
Cadge & Mendicate (to beg for more food)
Exacerbate & provoke (to increase)
Satiate & Allay (to fulfill)
Clearly, the third pair fits the best into the blank.
