כתובות פרק ג׳ משנה ד׳
Bartenura
האונס נותן את הצער – someone who had intercourse by compulsion is not the same as someone who had intercourse willingly, and the seduced woman does not have pain, for regarding ‘’suffering,” in the Torah concerning compulsion, but “suffering” is not stated regarding a seduced woman.
והאונס נותן מיד – to her father, even though he married her/consummated a marriage by conducting a woman to his house.
לכיוציא – meaning to say that if he will not marry her/consummate a marriage by conducting a woman to his house, for if he does not marry [her], he doesn’t pay the fine, as it is written (Exodus 22:15): “[If a man seduces a virgin for whom the bride-price has not been paid, and lies with her] he must make her his wife by payment of the bride-price,” and “if her father refuses [to give her to him], he must weigh out the silver [in accordance with the bride-price for virgins]” (Exodus 22:16); but concerning the rape, it is written (Deuteronomy 22:29): “[the man who lay with her] shall pay the girl’s father fifty [shekels of] silver and she shall be his wife.”
שותה בעציצו – in a despised utensil that he chose for It, meaning to say, he is forced to marry her.
האונס נותן את הצער. שאינו דומה נבעלת באונס לנבעלת ברצון, והמפותה אין לה צער, שהרי נאמר עינוי בתורה אצל אונס ולא נאמר עינוי אצל מפותה:
האונס נותן מיד. לאביה אף על פי שכונסה:
לכשיוציא. כלומר לכשלא יכנוס. שאם יכנוס אינו נותן קנס, כדכתיב (שמות כ״ב) מהר ימהרנה ואם מאן ימאן כסף ישקול. אבל גבי אונס כתיב (דברים כ״ב) ונתן חמשים כסף ולו תהיה לאשה:
שותה בעציצו. בכלי מאוס שבחר בו, כלומר על כרחו ישאנה:

רבי יוסי הגלילי אומר אין לה קנס – as the Biblical verse states (Deuteronomy 22:28): “[If a man comes upon a virgin] who is not engaged [and seizes her and lies with her, and they are discovered],” but if she is engaged one time, furthermore, there is no indemnity.
