Shloka 16
अत्रेः तपोबलप्रकाशः तथा च्यवनस्य सोमाधिकारः
Atri’s Illumination by Tapas; Cyavana and Soma-Entitlement
जिसके घर किसीकी मृत्यु हुई हो, उसके यहाँ मरणाशौचके तीसरे दिन अन्न ग्रहण करनेवाला ब्राह्मण बारह दिनोंतक त्रिकाल स्नान करनेसे शुद्ध होता है ।।
dvādaśāhe vyatīte tu kṛtaśauco viśeṣataḥ | brāhmaṇebhyo havir dattvā mucyate tena pāpmanā ||
毗湿摩说道：“待十二日之期既满，已如法完成净除（śauca）者，便得尤为清净。以哈维斯（havis，圣化供食/供献）施与婆罗门，即能脱离与死丧不净相连的罪垢。”

Educational Q&A
After completing the prescribed twelve-day purification connected with death-impurity, one should finalize purification and give a sanctified offering (havis) to Brahmins; this completes the expiatory process and removes the remaining taint.
In Bhīṣma’s instruction on dharma, he outlines the concluding step after a twelve-day observance: special purification and a ritualized gift/feeding of Brahmins with havis, by which the person becomes free from the impurity-associated fault.
