- A beggar was passing by a priests garden and seeing some shirts on the line stole one of them tucked it under his coat, and went to the door and knocked. The priest that owned the shirt answered the door and gave him a shilling. The beggar then offered the shirt to the priest but the priest smiled and said "Oh not at all, my good man you want it more yourself."
