Manu 2.157

यथा काष्ठमयो हस्ती यथा चर्ममयो मृगः । यश् च विप्रो ऽअनधीयानस्) त्रयस् ते नाम बिभ्रति) ॥

yathā kāṣṭhamayo hastī yathā carmamayo mṛgaḥ | yaś ca vipro 'an.adhīyānas) trayas te nāma bibhrati) ||

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

As an elephant made of wood, as an antelope made of leather, such is an unlearned Brāhmaṇa; those three have nothing but the names (of their kind).

Translated by Georg BühlerFrom an unproofread scan of the printed edition; spelling and line breaks may carry OCR errors.
