"I wonder " he said whether the stars are set alight in heaven so that one day each one of us may find his own again...

"I have been having some trouble with a flower " said the little prince.
“我和一朵花闹了别扭。”小王子说。
"Ah!" said the snake.
“啊!”蛇说道。
And they were both silent.
于是他们都沉默下来。
"Where are the men?" the little prince at last took up the conversation again. "It is a little lonely in the desert... "
“人在什么地方?”小王子终于又开了腔。“在沙漠上,真有点孤独…”

“但我比一个国王的手指更有威力。”蛇说道。
The little prince smiled.

"Whomever I touch I send back to the earth from whence he came " the snake spoke again. "But you are innocent and true and you come from a star... "
“被我碰触的人,我就把他送回老家去。”蛇还说,“可是你是纯洁的,而且是从另一个星球上来的…”
The little prince made no reply.

"I solve them all " said the snake.
“这些谜语我都能解开的。”蛇说。
And they were both silent.
