הַסּוֹמֵךְ סֻכָּתוֹ בְּכַרְעֵי הַמִּטָּה, כְּשֵׁרָה. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר, אִם אֵינָהּ יְכוֹלָה לַעֲמֹד בִּפְנֵי עַצְמָהּ, פְּסוּלָה. סֻכָּה הַמְדֻבְלֶלֶת, וְשֶׁצִּלָּתָהּ מְרֻבָּה מֵחַמָּתָהּ, כְּשֵׁרָה. הַמְעֻבָּה כְמִין בַּיִת, אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁאֵין הַכּוֹכָבִים נִרְאִים מִתּוֹכָהּ, כְּשֵׁרָה:

If one supported his succah on a bedstead, it is kasher. R. Yehudah says: If it cannot stand by itself, it is pasul. [R. Yehudah is consistent with his view that a succah must be a permanent dwelling. The halachah is not in accordance with R. Yehudah.] Succah meduvleleth [one in which he did not place the reeds together, one alongside the other, but one higher and one lower, so that the sun is more than the shade], if its shade is more than its sun, it is kasher. [Our Mishnah apprises us that we perceive it as if they were arranged in order. If in such an instance its shade would be more than its sun, it is kasher.]
