yathaiva śūdro brāhmaṇyāṃ bāhyaṃ jantuṃ prasūyate
tathā bāhyataraṃ bāhyaś cāturvarṇye prasūyate //

Just as a Sudra begets on a Brahmana female a being excluded (from the Aryan community), even so (a person himself) excluded pro creates with (females of) the four castes (varna, sons) more (worthy of being) excluded (than he himself).

Georg Bühler 1886, The Laws of Manu
