(details)
1 "but he has nothing at all on! " at last cried out all the people. the emperor was vexed, for he knew that the people were right; but he thought the procession must go on now!
the rogues sat up the whole of the night before the day on which the procession was to take place, and had sixteen lights burning, so that everyone might see how anxious they were to finish the emperor's new suit. 2 "how splendid his majesty looks in his new clothes, and how well they fit! " everyone cried out. "what a design! what colors! these are indeed royal robes! " 3 and accordingly he praised the stuff he could not see, and declared that he was delighted with both colors and patterns. "indeed, your imperial majesty," said he to his sovereign when he returned, "the cloth which the weavers are preparing is extraordinarily magnificent." 4 many years ago, there was an emperor, who was so excessively fond of new clothes, that he spent all his money in dress. he did not trouble himself in the least about his soldiers; nor did he care to go either to the theatre or the chase, except for the opportunities then afforded him for displaying his new clothes.
