from it a share, [eight remains, so that is the wealth. Take the third, three, and drop a share from them], two shares remain, and that is what remains for the heirs of the donee, and six remain for the donor, which is twice the amount for which the gift was permitted. And if he left a wife and a daughter, his problem is out of eight; you multiply it by three to become twenty-four, subtract from it the three which the donor inherited, twenty-one remains, and that is the wealth. You take a third of twenty-four, which is eight, and discard the three from it, five remains, and that is the remainder for the heirs of the donee, and the rest is for the donor, so you divide the hundred by these shares.

Section: If a sick person gifts another sick person one hundred, owning nothing else, then the donee returns and gifts it to the first [donor], and he owns nothing else, then in this chapter we multiply three by three and subtract a share from it, eight remains. Divide the hundred by it, so for every two shares is twenty-five, then take its third, three, and drop a share from it, two shares remain, and that is for the first donee, and that is the fourth. By algebra, the gift is valid for a 'thing', then the second gift is valid for a third of it, so two-thirds of a 'thing' remains for the first donee, and one hundred minus two-thirds of a 'thing' remains for the donor, which equals two 'things'. Compel and equate, and the 'thing' turns out to be thirty-seven and a half. A third of it, twelve and a half, returns to the donor, and twenty-five remains for the donee. If the donor left another hundred, then two hundred minus two-thirds of a 'thing' remains with the donor, which equals two 'things'. Thus, the 'thing' is three-eighths of it, and that is seventy-five. A third of it returns to the donor, and fifty remains with his heirs.

Section: If a man gifts a man a slave girl, and the donee takes possession of her and has intercourse with her, and her dowry is
