"I think it is time for breakfast," she added an instant later. "If you would have the kindness to think of my needs―"And the little prince, completely abashed, went to look for a sprinkling-can of fresh water. So, he tended the flower.
“我并不怕甚么老虎，可我讨厌风产生的气流。你有没有屏风？”
半晌以后，她弥补说道：“我想现在该是吃早点的时候了吧，不知您是否能够帮我……”

But the flower was not satisfied to complete the preparations for her beauty in the shelter of her green chamber. She chose her colours with the greatest care. She adjusted her petals one by one. She did not wish to go out into the world all rumpled, like the field poppies. It was only in the full radiance of her beauty that she wished to appear. Oh, yes! She was a coquettish creature! And her mysterious adornment lasted for days and days.
