The old Devala law-book — fragments 4.2

4.2

When the father is dead, the impotent, the leper, the madman, the idiot, the blind, the outcaste, the outcaste's child and one bearing (an ascetic's) emblem do not share in the inheritance; to them, except the outcaste, food and clothing are to be given; their sons, if free from the defect, receive the share of their father's inheritance.
