Original text
<b>תשעה באב שחל ביום ראשון. ובו סעיף אחד:</b><br>ליל תשעה באב שחל בא' בשבת כשרואה הנר אומר בורא מאורי האש ואין מברך על הבשמים ובליל מוצאי תשעה באב מבדיל על הכוס ואינו מברך לא על הנר ולא על הבשמים:
Tisha b'Av that falls on Sunday: and containing one subsection. // The night of Tisha b'Av that falls on Saturday night, when a person sees the candle they should say borei m'orei ha'aish and they should not bless on spices. And on the night when Tisha b'Av goes out, one should make Havdalah on a cup [of wine] and should not bless either a candle or spices.
