Quoting%20commentary for Bava Metzia 190:5
איבעית אימא כדמחליף רבה בר אבוה ותני שוכר כיצד משלם ר' מאיר אומר כשומר שכר ר' יהודה אומר כשומר חנם
R. Hamnuna said: He is always responsible unless it [the bailment] be a cow, and he [its owner] ploughs therewith [in the bailee's service], or an ass, and he drives it along, and unless the owner is in the bailee's service from the time the loan is made until it is injured or dies. Thus we see that in his view, 'But if the owner thereof be with it,' refers to the whole transaction.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' I.e., the owner must be in the borrower's service all the time, and employed on the labour done with the borrowed ox or ass. ');"><sup>4</sup></span>
