2.8.83
tābhyo duhitṛbhyo vinā duhitṝṇām abhāve anvayaḥ putrādir gṛhnīyāt | etac ca vibhajeran sutāḥ pitror ūrdhvam (YDh 2.117) ity anenaiva siddhaṃ spaṣṭārtham uktam || 2.117 ||
Except for those daughters—in the absence of daughters—the offspring, namely the son and so forth, should take it. And this, though already established by the rule itself, 'After the parents' death, the sons should divide' (YDh 2.117), is stated for the sake of clarity. || 2.117
