Translation

But [I, Āpastamba, say], let only a skin be worn as the upper garment.

Commentary / Explanation

According to 1;1;2;39 — 1;1;3;10, the rule of dress for students is the following:— according to Apastamba, a student shall wear a piece of cloth to cover his nakedness [laṅgoti], and a skin as upper garment. Other teacher's allow, besides, an upper dress of cloth, coloured differently for the different castes, with or without the addition of a deer-skin.
