A gentile woman who discharges semen from a Jew is impure. A Jewish woman who discharges semen from a gentile is pure. If a woman had intercourse with her husband, [literally: her house] and she descended and immersed but did not clean herself [literally: clean the house], it is as though she did not immerse. If <i>ba'al keri</i> immersed before urinating, when he urinates he becomes impure. Rabbi Yose says: [only] regarding one who was sick or elderly is he impure; but a child or a healthy person is pure.
