'' `` Your Royal Highness is always very kind , '' said Rosina , which was true ; but how much better and wiser it is not to begin to deceive ! We never know how far we may be carried , and so Jaqueline found out . For when she went down to breakfast , there was the king in a great state of excitement , for him . `` It 's most extraordinary , '' said his Majesty . `` What is ? '' asked the queen . `` Why , did n't you notice it ? No , you had gone to bed before it happened . But I was taking a walk in the moonlight , on the balcony , and I observed it carefully . '' `` Observed what , my dear ? '' asked the queen , who was pouring out the tea . `` Did n't you see it , Dick ? Late as usual , you young dog ! '' the king remarked as Ricardo entered the room . `` See what , sir ? '' said Dick . `` Oh , you were asleep hours before , now I think of it ! But it was the most extraordinary thing , an unpredicted eclipse of the moon !
You must have noticed it , XXXXX ; you sat up later .
