Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
The sacrificial string of a Brāhmaṇa shall be made of cotton, (shall be) twisted to the right, (and consist) of three threads, that of a Kshatriya of hempen threads, (and) that of a Vaiśya of woollen threads.
