Manu 1.32

द्विधा कृत्वा)-आत्मनो देहम् अर्धेन पुरुषो ऽअभवत्) । अर्धेन नारी तस्यां स विराजम् असृजत्) प्रभुः ॥

dvidhā kṛtvā)-ātmano deham ardhena puruṣo 'abhavat) | ardhena nārī tasyāṃ sa virājam asṛjat) prabhuḥ ||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

Dividing his own body, the Lord became half male and half female; with that (female) he produced Virag.
