f the little prince, still at some distance. To vain men, other people are admirers.
"Hello," sa the little prince. "That's a funny hat you're wearing."
"It's for answering acclamations," the very vain man replied. "Unfortunately, no one ever comes this way."
"Is that so?" sa the little prince, who d not understand what the vain man was talking about.
"Clap your hands," directed the man.
The little prince clapped his hands, and the very vain man tipped his hat in modest acknowledgment.
This is more entertaining than the visit to the king, the little prince sa to himself. And he continued clapping. The very vain man continued tipping his hat in acknowledgment.
After five minutes of this exercise, the little prince tired of the game's monotony. "And what would make the hat fall off?" he asked.
But the vain man d not hear him. Vain men never hear anything but praise.
"Do you really admire me a great deal?" he asked the little prince.
"What does that mean admire?"
"To admire means to acknowledge that I am the handsomest, the best-dressed, the richest, and the most intelligent man on the planet."
"But you're the only man on your planet!"
"Do me this favor. Admire me all the same."
"I admire you," sa the little prince, with a little shrug of his shoulders, "but what is there about my admiration that interests you so much?" And the little prince went on his way.
"Grown-ups are certainly very strange," he sa to himself as he continued on his journey.
