Talmud for Avodah Zarah 58:9

אמר לו כי טובים דודיך אמר לו אין הדבר כן שהרי חבירו מלמד עליו לריח שמניך טובים:

He said to him: “This is not so, as it is proved by the parallel verse, ‘Your ointments [masc.] have a goodly fragrance … [therefore do the maidens love you]’ (Song of Songs 1:3).”

Jerusalem Talmud Avodah Zarah

And the calf whose neck was broken. There, there. Since there mentioned further describes a prohibition of usufruct, also there said here implies prohibition of usufruct156Babli 29b, Sifry Deut. 207. This is a case of equal cut. It is written in Deut. 21:4,and they shall break the calf’s neck there in the wadi. Also it is written in Num.20:1, there Miriam died and was buried there. Since a grave and all its appurtenances are forbidden for usufruct, and since the mention of there in Deut. 21:4 is not logically necessary, the prohibition of usufruct (and, as noted in the Babylonian sources, the obligation of burial) is transferred to the calf..
