106.9

na sa paśyati taṃ ghoraṃ narakaṃ tena karmaṇā
uttarānsa kurūngatvā modate kālamakṣayam
putrāndārāṃśca labhate dhārmikānrūpasaṃyutān //

One who gives away his daughter (in marriage), according to the prescribed rites, between the Ganges and the Yamunâ, according to his means, never goes to the fearful hell. He is born in the Uttara-Kuru and gets a good wife and dutiful sons, and enjoys long life.—8-9.
