The paper proves canonical isomorphisms between Spin Verlinde spaces, that is, spaces of global sections of a determinant line bundle over the moduli space of semistable Spinn-bundles over a smooth projective curve C, and the dual spaces of theta functions over Prym varieties of unramified double covers of C.
