GULLIVER'S TRAVELS (10) [GULLIVER'S TRAVELS]

GULLIVER'S TRAVELS (10)

I asked once more to be set free, and at last the emperor agreed, so long as I would obey his rules.
I said that I would, and my chains were taken off.

I had always wanted to see capital city, and now that I was free the emperor said I could.

All the people were told to stay in their houses in case I walked on them.

So they crowded to their windows to see me as I stepped over the wall into the square where the emperor's palace stood.

It was really magnificent, like a big doll's house.
I lay down to look inside and the empress came to the window, smiling, and gave me her hand to kiss.

Soon after I was set free, one of the country's great men came to see me.
We had along talk and I learned many things.

I had thought the island, which is called Lilliput, was a peaceful and happy one, but he told me this was not so.
