पृथक् पृथग् वा मिश्रौ वा विवाहौ पूर्वचोदितौ । गान्धर्वो राक्षसश् च-एव धर्म्यौ क्षत्रस्य तौ स्मृतौ ॥
pṛthak pṛthag vā miśrau vā vivāhau pūrvacoditau | gāndharvo rākṣasaś ca-eva dharmyau kṣatrasya tau smṛtau ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
For Kshatriyas those before-mentioned two rites, the Gandharva and the Rakshasa, whether separate or mixed, are permitted by the sacred tradition.
