Di-d, ii-a, iii-b, iv-c

Explanation

Each letter is replaced by the letter whose position added to its own equals 26.

So A pairs with Y, B with X, and in general position n maps to 26 minus n.

QUAKE becomes IEYOU, since Q,U,A,K,E map to I,E,Y,O,U.

OFTEN becomes KTFUL under the same reciprocal rule.

PEACH becomes JUYWR and DRIVE becomes VHQDU by the identical pairing.

One consistent mirror substitution fixes every word to its code.
