As atonement she has to donate a tree which is made out of 20 tole of silver and should be equal to her thumb in its size to a Brahmin who knows vedas. 4

Hei Devi, then she will definitely attain puberty. A female who is living happily with her husband leaves him when he is in sleep and makes physical relation with a stranger||5||

Hei Parvati, she should continue worshipping accordingly till a year is completed and then donate cloths to a Kumaari which completes the formalities of the puja.||15||
