“那好吧，我号令你打哈欠。”国王说，“好些年来我没有瞥见过别人打哈欠。对我来讲，打哈欠倒是别致的事。来吧，再打几个哈欠！这是号令。”
“啊！来了一个子民。”国王瞥见小王子时，欣喜地喊了起来。
小王子持续他的旅途，内心想：“这些大人真奇特。”
小王子看看四周，想找个处所坐下来，但是全部星球被国王富丽的貂皮长袍占满了。小王子只好持续站在那边，但是他太累了，他打起哈欠来。
But the little prince, having now completed his preparations for departure, had no wish to grieve the old monarch.
“这倒叫我有点惊骇……我打不出哈欠来了……”小王子低声说，他现在感受很宽裕。
他嘟嘟囔囔，仿佛有点愤怒。
"Over everything"
He had a magnificent air of authority.
"Sire― over what do you rule""Over everything," said the king, with magnificent simplicity.
“是的，”小王子说，“但是我能够在任那边所审判我本身，我没有需求留在这个星球上。”
For what the king fundamentally insisted upon was that his authority should be respected. He tolerated no disobedience. He was an absolute monarch. But, because he was a very good man, he made his orders reasonable.
"I order you to do so," the king answered him, and majestically gathered in a fold of his ermine mantle.
“不可。”国王说。
