This is, to me, the loveliest and saddest landscape in the world. It isthe same as that on the preceding page, but I have drawn it again to impress iton your memory. It is here that the little prince appeared on Earth, and disappeared.
Lookat it carefully so that you will be sure to recognise it in case you travelsome day to the African desert. And, if you should come upon this spot, pleasedo not hurry on. Wait for a time, exactly under the star. Then, if a little manappears who laughs, who has golden hair and who refuses to answer questions,you will know who he is. If this should happen, please comfort me. Send me wordthat he has come back.
