maitrākṣajyotikaḥ preto vaiśyo bhavati) pūyabhuk | [M.maitrākṣijyotikaḥ ] cailāśakaś ca bhavati) śūdro dharmāt svakāc cyutaḥ) ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
A Vaiśya who has fallen off from his duty becomes a Maitraksha^yotika Preta, who feeds onpus; and a 6udra, a A^ailcLsaka (Preta, who feeds on\ moths).)
