Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
From a Brāhmaṇa with th« daughter of a Vaiśya is born (a son) called an Ambash^a, with the daughter of a.5udra a Nishada, who is also called a Para^ava. in each case the bridegroom must be older than the wife. He adds, Hence it has been declared that the son of a woman who is older than (her husband) is not a Brahmawa, though she may have been legally married, and may be of the same caste (as her husband).' The commentators are at great pains to prove that subsidiary sons, such as Saho^as, Kaninas, and so forth, and all offspring of illicit unions are outcasts.
