The man, her pledge, must by her hand be taken when they have cried, She is a Brahman's consort. She stayed not for a herald to conduct her: thus is the kingdom of a ruler guarded.
Ralph T. H. Griffith

hástenaivá grāhyà ādhír asyā brahmajāyéti céd ávocat | ná dūtā́ya prahéyā tastha eṣā́ táthā rāṣṭráṃ gupitáṃ kṣatríyasya ||3||

To be seized by the hand indeed is the pledge (? ''ādhí'') of her, if one has said "[she is] the Brahman's wife"; she stood not to be sent forth for a messenger: so is made safe (''gupitá'') the kingdom of the Kshatriya.

What a match here does and does not show

These links are derived by comparing normalised Sanskrit surfaces. They show that two collections carry the same wording. They are not, by themselves, a demonstrated line of transmission between them, and the direction stored on an edge is a property of how it was built.

Rigveda is one of four collections held here. Cross-corpus comparison bottoms out at the weakest shared surface, because a Devanagari text and a romanised text share no code points.

How these were derived1

  • Parallelism is symmetric and this graph stores it as a directed edge, so these relations are traversed in both directions and each row states which way the stored edge ran. All 1,684 REUSES_TEXT_FROM edges point Samaveda-to-Rigveda, and 1,421 Rigvedic passages have reuse edges only inbound; following the arrow would show those 1,421 verses no reuse at all.
