1.4.4

etaṃ ha vā etaṃ nyaṅgam anu gardabha iti
yad bha iti nigacchati tasmāt sa pāpīyāñ chreyasīṣu carati tasmād asya pāpīyasaś śreyo jāyate 'śvataro vāśvatarī vā /

Following this very inserted syllable, the donkey [comes into being].
When it reaches [the female] with 'bha', therefore he, being baser, goes upon superior females; therefore from him, the baser one, superior offspring is born: a he-mule or a she-mule.
