na dharmasyāpadeśena pāpaṃ kṛtvā vrataṃ caret
vratena pāpaṃ pracchādya kurvan strīśūdradambhanam //

If a man has committed an offence and does penance for it, he must not do so under pretext of performing an act of piety, covering his crime under a (fictitious) vow, and imposing on women and Sûdras.
