“这是一顶弁冕。”傲慢自大的人答复道，“当人们向我喝彩的时候，我就用帽子向他们请安。可惜，没有一小我颠末这里。”

"Do you really admire me very much" he demanded of the little prince.

“你好！”小王子说，“你戴的帽子很奇特。”

"Clap your hands, one against the other," the conceited man now directed him.

After five minutes of this exercise the little prince grew tired of the game's monotony.

“喔唷！一个崇拜我的人来拜访了！”这小我见到小王子从远处过来，赶快喊起来。

"Good morning," said the little prince. "That is a queer hat you are wearing.""It is a hat for salutes," the conceited man replied. "It is to raise in salute when people acclaim me. Unfortunately, nobody at all ever passes this way.""Yes" said the little prince, who did not understand what the conceited man was talking about.

“请鼓掌，摆布手掌相互拍合。”这个傲慢自大的人现在指导小王子如何给他鼓掌。

“让我欢畅吧，请你来敬佩我！”

小王子如许做了五分钟，以后对这类单调的游戏有点厌倦了。

"And what should one do to make the hat come down" he asked.

“甚么？”小王子说，他不晓得这个傲慢自大的人在说甚么。

小王子悄悄地耸了耸肩，说道：“我敬佩你，但是，这有甚么让你感觉风趣的？”

“敬佩么，就是承认我是天下上最优良、衣服最标致、最富有、最聪明的人。”
