של זהב ונמצא של כסף כו' – There are different people who prefer only that or that.
רבי שמעון אומר: אם הטעה לשבח, הרי זו מקודשת – Rabbi Shimon does not dispute other on [the question] of financial increase; for in and of itself, if it is of the same value, it would be fine for him. But regarding the increase in value of genealogies, such as “if he is a Levite, and it was found that he is a Kohen, Rabbi Shimon would admit that even if he had been deceived or he deceased her, even for something better, she is not betrothed, for his betterment is not pleasant for her since he exalts himself over her. And the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Shimon.
