One night a thief dug under the house of some rich man. He climbed up there, grabbed his hands full of goodness, and climbed back.
As soon as he climbed into the hole, his owner noticed him and grabbed him by the leg.
- Oh! – the thief screamed shrilly. – Don’t grab this leg, it’s sore!
The owner was confused, let go of his leg, and so was the thief.
