הָאַסְלָה, טְמֵאָה מִדְרָס וּטְמֵא מֵת. פֵּרְשָׁה, הָעוֹר טָמֵא מִדְרָס, וְהַבַּרְזֶל טָמֵא טְמֵא מֵת. הַטְּרַסְקָל שֶׁחִפּוּיוֹ שֶׁל עוֹר, טָמֵא מִדְרָס וּטְמֵא מֵת. פֵּרְשָׁה, הָעוֹר טָמֵא מִדְרָס, וְהַטְּרַסְקָל טָהוֹר מִכְּלוּם. סַפְסָלִין שֶׁבַּמֶּרְחָץ וּשְׁתֵּי רַגְלָיו שֶׁל עֵץ, טָמֵא. אַחַת שֶׁל עֵץ וְאַחַת שֶׁל אֶבֶן, טָהוֹר. הַנְּסָרִין שֶׁבַּמֶּרְחָץ שֶׁשִּׁגְּמָן, רַבִּי עֲקִיבָא מְטַמֵּא וַחֲכָמִים מְטַהֲרִין, שֶׁאֵינָם עֲשׂוּיִן אֶלָּא שֶׁיִּהְיוּ הַמַּיִם מְהַלְּכִין תַּחְתֵּיהֶן. קַנְקֵילִין שֶׁיֶּשׁ בָּהּ בֵּית קַבָּלַת כְּסוּת, טְמֵאָה. וְהָעֲשׂוּיָה כְּכַוֶּרֶת, טְהוֹרָה:

A toilet is subject to both <em>midras</em> and corpse impurity. If it was taken apart, the leather is subject to <em>midras</em> impurity, but the iron is subject [only] to corpse impurity. A folding stool whose seat covering is of leather is subject to both <em>midras</em> and corpse impurity. If it was taken apart, the leather is subject to <em>midras</em> impurity, while the stool is altogether pure. Benches in the bathhouse that have two wooden legs are susceptible to impurity. If one leg was of wood and the other of stone, it is pure. Boards in a bath-house which he joined together: Rabbi Akiva says that they are susceptible to [midras] impurity; but the Sages say that they are pure, since they are made only for the water to flow under them. A fumigation-cage that contains a receptacle for garments is susceptible to impurity, but one that is made like a bee-hive is pure.
