Manu 2.36
गर्भाष्टमे ऽअब्दे कुर्वीत) ब्राह्मणस्य-उपनायनम् । गर्भाद् एकादशे राज्ञो गर्भात् तु द्वादशे विशः ॥
garbhāṣṭame 'abde kurvīta) brāhmaṇasya-upanāyanam | garbhād ekādaśe rājño garbhāt tu dvādaśe viśaḥ ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
In the eighth year after conception, one should perform the initiation (upanayana) of a Brāhmaṇa, in the eleventh after conception (that) of a Kshatriya, but in the twelfth that of a Vaiiya.
