MISHNAH: Somebody’s [property] surrounded another’s on three sides. If he fenced in the first, and the second, and the third sides, one does not hold [the other] liable. Rebbi Yose said, if the latter then fenced in the fourth side, one rolls everything over to him. If the wall of a courtyard collapsed, one obligates him to rebuild up to four cubits. There is a presumption that he gave, unless he brings proof that he did not give. Higher than four cubits one does not obligate him, but if he built an adjacent wall, even though he did not put on roofing, one rolls everything over to him. There is a presumption that he did not give, unless he brings proof that he gave.

HALAKHAH: “Somebody’s [property] surrounded another’s,” etc. Halakhah 5: “If the wall of a courtyard collapsed,” etc. Rav Ḥuna said, only at the rate he is building now. For if he built it arched, he had to build arched. But here if it was built arched and he built it with bricks, he can collect the cost of arches, and if it should collapse, he has to rebuild it.

“Rebbi Yose said, if the latter then fenced in the fourth side, one rolls everything over to him.” Rav Ḥuna said, one rolls over the length of the wall to him.

So far lengthwise. What about its width? Rebbi Nasa said, the wall of the courtyard is only made to save for him. They intended to say that if he wanted to make a roof, he cannot make a roof. Rebbi Yose ben Rebbi Abun said, explain it by his beams.
