GULLIVER'S TRAVELS (26) [GULLIVER'S TRAVELS]

GULLIVER'S TRAVELS (26)

When the King was talking to me one day, I said I could teach him how to make gunpowder so that he would win a lot of wars.

The King of Brobdingnag however was a very wise man.
He said that he did not want to learn how to do it, and I must never talk about it again.

He said that if a man could make two ears of corn, or two blades of grass, grow where only one grew before, he would do more good than he could ever do by winning a war.

Soon after this the King and Queen and their servants set off on a long journey to another part of Brobdingnag.

I went with them in my box.
They fixed up a hammock in it so that I should not feel the bumps so much as we went along.   

My nurse came too, but she got a bad cold on the way.

When at last we came to s stop, she had to rest in bed for a few days.
