"What about sardines?" said Woggs in her common way. (I don't know what she's doing in this scene at all, but Roger Scurvilegs insists on it.)
"I don't think a Prince would like sardines," said Wiggs.
"If I'd been on a long journey, I'd love sardines. It is a very long journey from Araby, isn't it?"
"Awful long. Why, it's taken him nearly a week. Perhaps," she added hopefully, "he's had something on the way."
"Perhaps he took some sandwiches with him," said Woggs, thinking that this would be a good thing to do.
"What do you think he'll be like, Woggs?"
Woggs though for a long time.
"Like the King," she said. "Only different," she added, as an afterthought.
Up came the Princess for the fifth time that afternoon, all excitement.
"Well," she said, "is everything ready?"
