Manu 1.8

सो ऽअभिध्याय) शरीरात् स्वात् सिसृक्षुर् विविधाः प्रजाः । अप एव ससर्ज)-आदौ तासु वीर्यम् अवासृजत्) ॥

so 'abhidhyāya) śarīrāt svāt sisṛkṣur vividhāḥ prajāḥ | apa eva sasarja)-ādau tāsu vīryam avāsṛjat) ||

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

He, desiring to produce beings of many kinds from his own body, first with a thought created the waters, and placed his seed in them.
