Manu 5.158

आसीत-आ मरणात् क्सान्ता नियता ब्रह्मचारिणी । यो धर्म एकपत्नीनां काङ्क्षन्ती तम् अनुत्तमम् ॥

āsīta-ā maraṇāt ksāntā niyatā brahmacāriṇī | yo dharma ekapatnīnāṃ kāṅkṣantī tam anuttamam ||

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

Until death let her be patient (of hardships), self-controlled, and chaste, and strive (to fulfil) that most excellent duty which (is prescribed) for wives who have one husband only.

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