Reference for Kiddushin 24:4

אביי ורבא לא סבירא להו להא דרב חסדא אם הקילו בשבויה דמנוולה נפשה גבי שבאי ניקיל באשת איש

Abaye and Raba, [however], do not agree with this ruling of R'Hisda: if they [the Rabbis] were lenient in respect of a captive woman,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' To whom R. Hanina's dictum applied.');">⁷</span> who suffered disgrace under her captors,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' [Or, 'who makes herself look repulsive in the presence of her captors' so as to keep them away from her.]');">⁸</span> shall we be [equally] lenient in the case of a married woman?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Tosaf. explains thus (on a reading which omits the phrase 'who... captors') : Even if witnesses attest her captivity, a priestly marriage is forbidden her only by Rabbinical law, for fear that she was outraged by her captors; hence we are lenient where the existence of such witnesses is only alleged. But in the case under discussion, should witnesses attest that the stone was worth a perutah when given, she is certainly a married woman and forbidden to others; therefore regard must be paid to the allegation that such witnesses exist elsewhere.');">⁹</span>
