Manu 10.4

ब्राह्मणः क्षत्रियो वैश्यस् त्रयो वर्णा द्विजातयः । चतुर्थ एकजातिस् तु शूद्रो न-अस्ति) तु पञ्चमः ॥

brāhmaṇaḥ kṣatriyo vaiśyas trayo varṇā dvijātayaḥ | caturtha ekajātis tu śūdro na-asti) tu pañcamaḥ ||

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

The Brahma;za, the Kshatriya, and the Vai-sya castes (varṇa) are the twice-born ones, but the fourth, the Śttdra, has one birth only; there is no fifth (caste).
