  Tom was very clever,but he hated hard work. He said,"You work hard, but you can't get much money. I want easy work and I want to be rich." So he became a thief, but he did not do the stealing himself: he got others to do it. They were not so clever as he was and they all listened to him. So he prepared everything and told them what to do.

  One day they were looking for rich families to rob and Tom sent one of his men to a large beautiful house just outside the town.

  It was evening, and when the man looked through one of the windows, he saw a young man and a girl playing a duet on a piano.

  When he went back to Tom, he reported,"That family can't have much money.You see, two people were playing on the same piano there."
