Mishnah 1א׳

כָּל הַמְטַמְּאִין בְּאֹהֶל שֶׁנֶּחְלְקוּ וְהִכְנִיסָן לְתוֹךְ הַבַּיִת, רַבִּי דוֹסָא בֶן הַרְכִּינַס מְטַהֵר, וַחֲכָמִים מְטַמְּאִים. כֵּיצַד. הַנּוֹגֵעַ בְּכִשְׁנֵי חֲצָיֵי זֵיתִים מִן הַנְּבֵלָה אוֹ נוֹשְׂאָן. וּבַמֵּת, הַנּוֹגֵעַ בְּכַחֲצִי זַיִת וּמַאֲהִיל עַל כַּחֲצִי זַיִת, אוֹ נוֹגֵע בְּכַחֲצִי זַיִת וְכַחֲצִי זַיִת מַאֲהִיל עָלָיו, מַאֲהִיל עַל כִּשְׁנֵי חֲצָיֵי זֵיתִים, מַאֲהִיל עַל כַּחֲצִי זַיִת וְכַחֲצִי זַיִת מַאֲהִיל עָלָיו, רַבִּי דוֹסָא בֶן הַרְכִּינַס מְטַהֵר, וַחֲכָמִים מְטַמְּאִין. אֲבָל הַנּוֹגֵעַ בְּכַחֲצִי זַיִת וְדָבָר אַחֵר מַאֲהִיל עָלָיו וְעַל כַּחֲצִי זַיִת, אוֹ מַאֲהִיל עַל כַּחֲצִי זַיִת וְדָבָר אַחֵר מַאֲהִיל עָלָיו וְעַל כַּחֲצִי זַיִת, טָהוֹר. אָמַר רַבִּי מֵאִיר, אַף בָּזֶה רַבִּי דוֹסָא בֶן הַרְכִּינַס מְטַהֵר, וַחֲכָמִים מְטַמְּאִין. הַכֹּל טָמֵא, חוּץ מִן הַמַּגָּע עִם הַמַּשָּׂא, וְהַמַּשָּׂא עִם הָאֹהֶל. זֶה הַכְּלָל, כֹּל שֶׁהוּא מִשֵּׁם אֶחָד, טָמֵא. מִשְּׁנֵי שֵׁמוֹת, טָהוֹר:

All objects that impurify through sharing a tent that were divided and then brought into a house: Rabbi Dosa ben Harkinas declares [the objects inside the house] pure. But the Sages declare [them] impure. How so? One who touches two [pieces the size of] half an olive of carrion, or carries them, or, in the case of a corpse, one who touches [a piece the size of] half an olive and overshadows [a piece the size of] half an olive, or if he touches [a piece the size of] half an olive and [a piece the size of] half an olive overshadows him, or if he overshadows two [pieces the size of] half an olive, or if he overshadows [a piece the size of] half an olive and another [piece the size of] half an olive overshadows him: Rabbi Dosa ben Harkinas declares him pure, and the Sages declare him impure. But if he touches a piece the size of] half an olive and another object overshadows him and a [piece the size of] half an olive, or if he overshadows [a piece the size of] half an olive and another object overshadows him and a [piece the size of] half an olive, he is pure. Rabbi Meir says: Even in this matter Rabbi Dosa ben Harkinas declares him pure and the Sages declare him impure. Every case is impure except touching combined with carrying or carrying combined with overshadowing. This is the general principle: every object [whose defilement] comes from one type is impure, from two types is pure.

Mishnah 2ב׳

מְלֹא תַרְוָד רָקָב שֶׁנִּתְפַּזֵּר בְּתוֹךְ הַבַּיִת, הַבַּיִת טָמֵא. וְרַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן מְטַהֵר. רְבִיעִית דָּם שֶׁנִּבְלְעָה בְתוֹךְ הַבַּיִת, הַבַּיִת טָהוֹר. נִבְלְעָה בִכְסוּת, אִם מִתְכַּבֶּסֶת וְיוֹצֵא מִמֶּנָּה רְבִיעִית דָּם, טְמֵאָה. וְאִם לָאו, טְהוֹרָה, שֶׁכֹּל הַבָּלוּעַ שֶׁאֵינוֹ יָכוֹל לָצֵאת, טָהוֹר:

A ladleful of decomposed corpse that was scattered about in a house, the house is impure. But Rabbi Shimon declares it pure. A Revi'it [specific unit of volume] of blood that was absorbed in [the floor] of a house, the house is pure. If it was absorbed in a garment: if the garment is washed and a Revi'it of blood comes out of it, it is impure, if not, it is pure, since anything absorbed that cannot come out is pure.
