MISHNAH: If somebody borrowed a cow and [the lender] sent it through his son, or his slave, or his agent, or through the borrower’s son, or slave, or agent, and it died, he is not liable. If the borrower said, send it to me through my son, or slave, or agent, or through your son, or slave, or agent, or if the lender said, I am going to send it to you through my son, or slave, or agent, or through your son, or slave, or agent, and the borrower said: send! If it died, he is liable. The same holds when he returns it.

HALAKHAH: It was stated: ‘Lend me your cow for ten days and you shall be lent to me the first five days.’ If it died, was it subject to the first days’ servitude? It died subject to the later days’ servitude. ‘Lend me your cow for ten days and you shall be lent to me the first of these.’ If it died during the later days, was it subject to the first days’ servitude? it died subject to the later days’ servitude. ‘Lend me your cow after ten days.’ The other one said, ‘take it now.’ If it died, was it subject to the first days’ servitude? It died subject to the later days’ servitude.

Lend me your cow and I shall respond to your request; lend me your cow and come work with me; lend me your axe and come weed with me; lend me your plate and come eat with me. If he borrowed it from the superintendent of cisterns, the steward, or the administrator and it died, it is as if the owners were with it.
