Whoever strikes his male or female servant with a staff, and if they have died by his hands, he shall be guilty of a crime.
But if he survives for one day or two, he shall not be subject to punishment, because it is his money.
If men will have quarreled, and one of them has struck a pregnant woman, and as a result she miscarries, but she herself survives, he shall be subject to as much damage as the husband of the woman shall petition from him, or as arbitrators shall judge.
But if her death will have followed, he will repay a life for a life,

If anyone will have struck the eye of his male or female servant, having left them with one eye, he shall release them freely, because of the eye that he has put out.
