בעו מיניה מרבי יהושע בן לוי מהו להסתפק מנויי סוכה כל שבעה א"ל הרי אמרו אסור להרצות מעות כנגד נר חנוכה אמר רב יוסף מריה דאברהם תלי תניא בדלא תניא סוכה תניא חנוכה לא תניא דתניא סככה כהלכתה ועיטרה בקרמים ובסדינין המצויירין ותלה בה אגוזים אפרסקין שקדים ורמונים ופרכילי ענבים ועטרות של שבלים יינות (של) שמנים וסלתות אסור להסתפק מהן עד מוצאי יום טוב האחרון של חג ואם התנה עליהן הכל לפי תנאו אלא אמר רב יוסף אבוהון דכולהו דם:

Tosefta Sukkah (Lieberman)

You can cover with boards, The words of R. Yehuda. But the sages say: Only when between him and to the nearest there is an interval as large as its own extent. R. Yehuda said: There was an occurrence in the hour of danger: We set up ladders and made a roof over them with boards and slept under them. They said to him: The hour of danger is no proof. But the sages agree in this that if a board has four handbreadths wide, it is necessary that between it and the next to it there will be an interval as large as its own extent. If you hang on it nuts and pomegranates and olive cakes and bunches of grapes and wreaths of corn up, then it is [nevertheless] qualified. One shall not eat from them, even on the last day of the festival. But if you have given them the proviso that you want to eat from them during the festival, it is allowed.
