It is inadvisable to clash with a deaf-mute, a mentally deranged person, or a minor: [if] one wounds them, he is liable; but [if] they wound others, they are exempt. It is inadvisable to clash with a slave or with a woman: [if] one wounds them, he is liable; but [if] they wound others, they are exempt, although they must pay later. Should the woman become divorced, or the slave freed, they are obligated to pay.
