At this question, the Donkey opened weary, dying eyes and answered in the same tongue: "I am Lamp-Wick."

Then he closed his eyes and died.

"Oh, my poor Lamp-Wick," said Pinocchio in a faint voice,

"Do you feel so sorry for a little donkey that has cost you nothing?" said the Farmer.
“為什么這頭驢子你分文不花，卻這么可憐它？”農(nóng)民說，

"But, you see, he was my friend." "Your friend?" "A classmate of mine."

The Marionette, ashamed and hurt by those words, did not answer, but taking his glass of milk returned to his father.
