[But you could] also say [with regard to] his sister— it could be fulfilled in the case of his sister who was a mature girl! Yohanan could answer you: [The verse] “Since (tahat) he had relations with her” is required for the teaching of Abaye, for Abaye said: The verse says, “Since he had relations with her.” This [he shall pay] for he has had relations with her, [from which we infer] by implication, that there is also payment for shame and damages.
