Treatise Iii. On The Sabbath. Chapter V
*
"The Talmud", by Joseph Barclay, [1878],
Chapter V.
1. \"With what is a beast led forth, and with what is it not led forth?" 2 "One may lead forth the camel with a head-stall, and the she-camel with a nose-ring, and the Lydda 3 asses with a bridle, and a horse with a halter, and all animals that wear a halter they may lead forth with a halter, and they are held with a halter, and, if unclean, they may sprinkle water upon them, and baptize them in their places."
2. The ass one may lead forth with a pack-saddle when it is bound on it. Rams go forth tied up. Ewes go forth
p. 89
with tails bound back, doubled down, or put in a bag. The goats go forth bound tightly. Rabbi Jos "forbids all, excepting ewes, to have their tails in a bag." Rabbi Judah says "the goats go forth bound tightly to dry up their udders, but not to guard the milk."
3. \"And with what must they not go forth? A camel must not go forth with a rag bound as a mark to its tail, nor fettered, nor with fore-foot tied doubled up, and so with the rest of all beasts; a man must not bind camels one to another, and lead them, but he may take their ropes into his hand, and hold them, guarding that they be not twisted." 1
4. One must not bring forth an ass with a pack-saddle, when it is not tied upon him "before the Sabbath;" nor with a bell, even though it be muffled, nor with a ladder 2 on its throat, nor with a strap on its leg; nor may cocks and hens be led forth with twine or straps on their legs. Nor may rams be led forth with a gocart under their tails, nor ewes with John wood. 3 And the calf must not be led forth with a muzzle, nor a cow with the skin of the hedgehog, 4 nor with a strap between her horns. The cow 5 of Rabbi Eleazar, the son of Azariah, used to go out with a strap between her horns, but not with the will of the Sages.

89:2 Ladder-shaped piece of wood to prevent it rubbing its throat if it have a sore.
89:3 Wood discovered by one John, which when put into sheep's nostrils, caused them to sneeze and the maggots to fall off.
89:4 To prevent her being sucked by reptiles.
