जातो निषादात्-शूद्रायां जात्या भवति) पुक्कसः । शूद्राज् जातो निषाद्यां तु स वै कुक्कुटकः स्मृतः ॥
jāto niṣādāt-śūdrāyāṃ jātyā bhavati) pukkasaḥ | śūdrāj jāto niṣādyāṃ tu sa vai kukkuṭakaḥ smṛtaḥ ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
The son of a Nishada by a Śudra female becomes a Pukkasa by caste (^ati), but the son of a.5udra by a Nishada female is declared to be a Kukku/aka.
