The punctuated line will be: The king approached him and said, “For the last time I pray to you to answer my question, wise man”.
There are two parts of the sentence.
One part is in the direct speech and the other part is described in indirect speech.
The indirect speech is written in sentence case and the quotation mark is started from the conversational (direct speech part) part.
Before ‘wise man’ a comma is placed as there is slight poise before the addressal.
