ששה העושה אותן מיד מת ואלו הן הבא בדרך ונתייגע הקיז דם ונכנס לבית המרחץ ושתה ונשתכר וישן על גבי קרקע ושימש מטתו אמר רבי יוחנן והוא שעשאן כסידרן

Bar Huna said: If a man immediately on returning from a journey has marital intercourse, his children will be weaklings. The Rabbis taught: <font>On coming from a privy a man should not have sexual intercourse till he has waited long enough to walk half a <i>mil</i>, because the demon of the privy is with him for that time;</font> if he does, his children will be epileptic. The Rabbis taught: <font>If a man has sexual intercourse standing, he will be liable to convulsions; if sitting, to spasms;<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Reading [H], s.v.
