Original Script
洪公耆燮，少貧甚無聊。一日朝，婢兒踊躍獻七兩錢，曰此在鼎中，米可數石，柴可數馱，天賜天賜。公驚曰，是何金，卽書失金人推去等字，付之門楣而待。俄而姓劉者來問書意，公悉言之，劉曰理無失金於人之鼎內，果天賜也，盍取之。公曰非吾物何，劉俯伏曰，小的昨夜爲窃鼎來，還憐家勢蕭條而施之，今感公之廉价，良心自發，誓不更盜，願欲常侍，勿慮取之。公卽還金曰，汝之爲良則善矣。金不可取，終不受。後公爲判書，其子在龍，爲憲宗國舅，劉亦見信，身家大昌。《明心寶鑑.廉義篇》

- Discussion Questions:
(YO) I checked out about the character 夔 and 耆. They should be different characters (that is, they shouldn't be used interchangeably)--the former meaning a kind of a mythical monster, the latter 'old man' or '60 years of age.' I think I copied and pasted from 동양고전종합DB: http://db.cyberseodang.or.kr/front/alphaList/BookMain.do?mId=m02&sMode=M. It turns out quite a few web sites repeat the same. At this point, I can't find a reason that they can be related, except for they are homophonous (기).
