Now I know [that we do not argue thus]. <b><i>MISHNAH</i></b>. IF A MAN SELLS AN OLIVE PRESS, HE [AUTOMATICALLY] SELLS THEREWITH THE SEA AND THE POUNDING STONE AND THE 'MAIDENS', BUT HE DOES NOT SELL THE THWARTS NOR THE WHEEL NOR THE BEAM.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' All these terms are explained in the Gemara.
