Commentary for Pesachim 194:6

והא מדקאמר רבי יוחנן עלה אין הפסח קרב שלמים אלא שנמצא אחר שחיטה אבל קודם שחיטה לא אלמא שחיטה קבע מכלל דשמואל סבר חצות קבע

- Samuel agrees with Rabbah, who maintained: The slaughtering stamps [it]. But surely, since R'Johanan said thereon: 'No Passover-offering is brought as a peace-offering save when it is found after the slaughtering, but not [if it is found] before the slaughtering,' which proves that [i his opinion] the slaughtering stamps [it], it follows that Samuel holds [that] midday stamps it? - Rather Samuel agrees with Rabbi, who ruled: A lost [sacrifice] goes forth to perish - But all lost [sacrifices] are lef to perish, in Rabbi's opinion, whereas in the case of the Passover-offering, where it is lost before midday and found before midday it must be left to graze? - He holds that [if it is found] before midday it is not [regarded as] lost, and he also holds: Midday stamps [it].
