thieve

Observe thief, but thieves and to thieve; loaf, but loaves; shelf, but shelves and to shelve.

I had not been with them twelve hours, before old Fulcher told me that I must thieve as well as the rest.

The father quietly observed, “I never knew the dog to thieve before.”

I havent the slightest doubt that I would thieve again at the earliest opportunity.

Here, as at most places, the natives of inferior rank showed a disposition to thieve.
