A closed house does not defile all around it. [If] he breached its boards, it defiles all around it.
[Concerning inserting] a faucet [into a cask] : Rabh prohibits [it] , and Samuel permits [it] . [Concerning] cutting a fresh hole [in the cask for the purpose of inserting a faucet] all do not differ, [agreeing] that it is prohibited, [and concerning] replacing [the faucet, if once removed] , all do not differ, [agreeing] that it is permitted. They differ [only] when a hole had already been made [in the cask before the Sabbath] , but it was not quite fit [for the faucet] .

R. Yimar of Diphti said: "As a precaution lest a groove (channel) [be made] ." R. Ashi said: "As a precaution lest [the leaf] be broken off [from its stem] ." What [difference] is there between them? The [difference] between them is in the case of [a leaf] that had already been broken off [from its stem] . [The precautionary measure of R. Yimar remains, while that of R. Ashi falls to the ground of itself.]
[Is it permitted] to wrap one's self in a bolster in public ground and bring it into private ground? Rabh prohibits [this] and Samuel permits [it] .
