eko 'lubdhas syād bahvyaḥ śucyo 'pi na striyaḥ
strībuddher asthiratvāt tu doṣaiś cānye 'pi ye vṛtāḥ //
One man who is free from covetousness may be (accepted as) witness; but not even many pure women, because the understanding of females is apt to waver, nor even many other men, who are tainted with sin.
