ब्रह्मक्षत्रं वैश्यवर्णं च शूद्रः क्रमेणैतान्न्यायतः पूजयानः । तुष्टेष्वेतेष्वव्यथो दग्धपापस्त्यक्त्वा देहं स्वर्गसुखानि भुङ्क्ते ॥५-४० -२६॥

A śūdra, honoring in due order the brāhmaṇa, the kṣatriya, and the vaiśya as is proper, and with them satisfied, becomes free from distress; his demerit is said to be consumed, and upon leaving the body he enjoys the felicities of heaven.
