    the thief would have the profit.
    This is how she would take the profit. She would go from cow to cow taking a little milk from each and saying, "all to me, all to me."
    To get back the profit the farmer's wife would redden the coulter of the plough in the fire and then the thief would be in such pain that she would have to bring back the profit
