PENANCES.
16. For (killing) a Sûdra (the same penance must be performed) during one year; and he shall give ten cows and one bull.
17. And the same (rule applies) if a female (has been killed) who was not in the condition (described in Sûtra 12).
18. (The penance for killing) a cow is the same as for (the murder of) a Vaisya,
19. And for injuring a frog, an ichneumon, a crow, a chameleon, a musk-rat, a mouse, and a dog,
20. And for killing one thousand (small animals) that have bones,
21. Also for (killing) an ox-load of (animals) that have no bones;
(svâbhâvika), i. e. not accompanied by the carrying of the foot of a bedstead and the rest.'-Haradatta.
