3.212

agnyabhāve tu viprasya pāṇāv evopapādayet
yo hy agniḥ sa dvijo viprair mantradarśibhir ucyate //

But if no (sacred) fire (is available), he shall place (the offerings) into the hand of a Brahmana; for Brahmanas who know the sacred texts declare, 'What fire is, even such is a Brahmana.'

Georg Bühler 1886, The Laws of Manu
