'''The Thieves and the Moonlight'''
|Has Description=<nowiki>'''The Thieves and the Moonlight'''</nowiki>


A group of thieves decide to rob a rich man one night when the moon is full. One thief listens at the skylight to hear if anyone inside is awake, and guessing what is happening, the man and his wife stage a conversation. Loudly, the rich man reveals that he stole all his great wealth by sneaking into houses through their skylights, using a magic spell that allows you to descend the moonlight like a ladder. He tells his wife the spell ("ulam, shulam, sulam" in Mischle Sendebar), and the thief, delighted, tells his companions. When the moon is high, they all climb to the skylight and say the spell - but they fall down to the floor, where the rich man and his wife beat them to death.
