I guess people don't want to comment without seeing the English version.

The Thief Who Became a Disciple

One evening as Shichiri Kojun was reciting sutras a thief with a sharp
sword entered, demanding either money or his life.

Shichiri told him: "Do not disturb me. You can find the money in that
drawer." Then he resumed his recitation.

A little while afterwards he stopped and called: "Don't take it all. I need
some to pay taxes with tomorrow."

The intruder gathered up most of the money and started to leave. "Thank a
person when you receive a gift," Shichiri added. The man thanked him and
made off.

A few days afterwards the fellow was caught and confessed, among others,
the offence against Shichiri. When Shichiri was called as a witness he
said: "This man is no thief, at least as far as I am concerned. I gave him
money and he thanked me for it."

After he had finished his prison term, the man went to Shichiri and became
his disciple.
