yathā trayāṇāṃ varṇānāṃ dvayor ātmāsya jāyate
ānantaryāt svayonyāṃ tu tathā bāhyeṣv api //
As a (Brahmana) begets on (females of) two out of the three (twice-born castes a son similar to) himself, (but inferior) on account of the lower degree (of the mother), and (one equal to himself) on a female of his own race, even so is the order in the case of the excluded (races, vahya).
