Manu 8.22

यद् राष्ट्रं शूद्रभूयिष्ठं नास्तिकाक्रान्तम् अद्विजम् । विनश्यत्य्) आशु तत् कृत्स्नं दुर्भिक्षव्याधिपीडितम् ॥

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

That kingdom where Śudras are very numerous, which is infested by atheists and destitute of twice-born (inhabitants), soon entirely perishes, afflicted by famine and disease.

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