“Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths

I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.”

Ah," said the fox, "I shall cry."
It is your own fault," said the little prince. "I never wished you any sort of harm; but you wanted me to tame you . . ."

It has done me good," said the fox, "because of the color of the wheat fields.”
