4 The par
...ents of the girl also find out privately what sort of a family the man belongs to, and what sort of a person he himself is, before giving their consent when approached by his family asking for their daughter.
5. The man in question first secures the service of a reliable and interested person (preferably an elderly woman) privately to propose to the girl for him. This third party is called Alarena (i.
