[Do you say that there are] forty-three [sprinklings]' Surely it was taught [that there are] forty-seven? The former agrees with the view that you mingle [the blood of the bullock and of the he-goat] for [sprinkling on] the horns; while the latter agrees with the view that you do not mingle [them] for [sprinkling on] the horns. But it was taught [that] forty-eight [are required]? - One agrees with the view that [the pouring out of] the residue [at the base of the altar] is indispensable; while the other agrees with the view that the residue is not indispensable. <br>
