putraṃ vijānanti śrutidvaidhaṃ tu kartari
āhur utpādakaṃ ke cid apare kṣetriṇaṃ viduḥ //
They (all) say that the male issue (of a woman) belongs to the lord, but with respect to the (meaning of the term) lord the revealed texts differ; some call the begetter (of the child the lord), others declare (that it is) the owner of the soil.
