Si un boeuf frappe de ses cornes un homme ou une femme, et que la mort en soit la suite, le boeuf sera lapidé, sa chair ne sera point mangée, et le maître du boeuf ne sera point puni.
E quando un bue avrà cozzato un uomo o una donna, sì che ne muoia, del tutto sia quel bue lapidato, e non mangisene la carne; e il padrone del bue sia assolto.
E se algum boi escornear homem ou mulher, que morra, o boi será apedrejado certamente, e a sua carne não se comerá; mas o dono do boi será absolvido.
