Once, a thief went to rob a house. He spread out a piece of cloth and went inside the storeroom to get the goods. Unknown to him, the owner saw him. He picked up the piece of cloth which the thief had spread out. He waited for the thief. The thief came back and threw the things on the floor where he had spread out the cloth. But when the thief tried to tie up the stolen wealth, he found the cloth missing. He was terribly confused. He thought, ‘Where has the cloth vanished?’ Suddenly, he heard the barking of a dog. The owner had mimicked the barking of a dog. The thief was scared. He did not want to get caught. He ran as fast as he could leaving everything behind. The owner had a hearty laugh at this.
