71.19

na tasya patnyā virahaḥ kadācidapi jāyate
nārī vā vidhavā brahman yāvaccandrārkatārakam
na virūpau na śokārtau dampatī bhavataḥ kvacit //

A woman with a husband, or a widow, who keeps up this ordinance according to the prescribed rites, without niggardliness, goes to and resides in heaven. They, being always dutiful and free from sorrow and blessed with sons, cattle and wealth, always remain in company of their husband, without being separated so long as the sun, moon and stars remain in heaven.—17-18.

A Taluqdar of Oudh 1916, The Matsya Puranam
