प्रतिलोमं तु वर्तन्तो बाह्याद्बाह्यतरं पुनः । हीना हीनात्प्रसूयन्ते वर्णाः पञ्चदशैव ते ॥
English Scholarly Translation
From those outside the pale of the four castes and those again that are further outside that limit, children multiply on account of the union of persons with women of classes superior to their own. Thus, from persons of inferior position classes spring up, altogether fifteen in number, that are equally low or still lower in dignity.
