7.1.16

teṣāṃ yathoktadāyināṃ mātā pāṇiṃ grāhayet/

After this the daughter should be kept in seclusion as far as possible, and the mother should give her in marriage to the man who may be ready to give her the presents agreed upon. If the mother is unable to get so much out of the man, she should show some of her own things as having been given to the daughter by the bridegroom.
