כז כֵּיצַד בְּרָאשֵׁי אֵבָרִים, עֶבֶד שֶׁמָּל וְטָבַל לְשֵׁם עַבְדוּת, אִם סִמֵּא אֲדוֹנָיו אֶת עֵינוֹ, אוֹ הִפִּיל שִׁנּוֹ, אוֹ חִסְרוֹ אֶחָד מֵרָאשֵׁי אֶצְבְּעוֹתָיו יָדָיו וְרַגְלָיו, אוֹ רָאשֵׁי אָזְנָיו, אוֹ רֹאשׁ הַחֹטֶם, אוֹ רֹאשׁ הַגְּוִיָּה, אוֹ רָאשֵׁי הַדַּדִּים שֶׁבָּאִשָּׁה, יוֹצֵא לְחֵרוּת וְצָרִיךְ גֵּט שִׁחְרוּר. אֲבָל חָתַךְ לְשׁוֹנוֹ, אֵינוֹ יוֹצֵא לְחֵרוּת

Seif 27

How does a slave acquire his freedom by the loss of one of his limbs? A slave that is circumcised and immersed for the sake of slavehood, if he was blinded by his master, or if he knocked out his tooth or is made to loose the tip of a finger or toes or nose or penis or nipples of a woman, he (or she) is granted his (or her) freedom and receives a bill of release. However if his tongue is cut off he is not set free.
