"Metafora raja sebagai gembala bangsanya kembali ke Mesir kuno. Mungkin penggunaan konvensi khusus ini disebabkan oleh fakta bahwa, karena bodoh, penuh kasih sayang, suka berteman, dan mudah dicap, masyarakat yang dibentuk oleh domba paling mirip manusia."

Versi Bahasa Inggris
The metaphor of the king as the shepherd of his people goes back to ancient Egypt. Perhaps the use of this particular convention is due to the fact that, being stupid, affectionate, gregarious, and easily stampeded, the societies formed by sheep are most like human ones.
