THE THIEF AND HIS AUNT

Once there lived an orphan boy in a town. He had an aunt who looked after him. As he was an orphan his aunt never rebuked him if he did anything wrong. One day he stole a book from one of his classmates and brought it home. But his aunt did not tell anything about his misdeed. The boy began to steal books and other articles from his school. In course of time, he became a seasoned thief. One day the police caught him red handed and he was ordered to be hanged. On the day of his execution he saw his aunt crying in the crowd. The boy requested the police to allow him to say something to his aunt.His aunt was allowed to come up. The boy put his face near her ear and bit off one of her ears. The lady cried in agony. Everyone was completely surprised. Then the thief said, "The lady is the cause of my punishment. She allowed me to steal and thereby has led me to my present doom.”
