Describe the incident happened when gulliver was left alone in the garden
Answers
Glumdalclitch used to carry Gulliver to the garden in a box and leave him there while she went for a walk. In her absence, Gulliver faced several accidents. Once there was a shower of hail which hurt him a lot. He felt that he was being hit by tennis balls. Another time, the gardener's small white dog picked him in his mouth and took him to the chief gardener. But luckily he was not bruised because the dog was well trained to hold things between his teeth. Once a kite stooped down on him and tried to carry him in its talons. Another time, he fell neck deep in a fresh mole-hill. Once he was thinking about England while walking alone and stumbled over a snail. As a result his right shin broke.
Besides this, the birds were not scared of him and would even peck at his fingers. One bird had the audacity to snatch a cake from his hands. One day he threw a cudgel at a linnet which knocked him down. He caught it by the neck and took it to his nurse. The linnet hit him with its wings. One of the servants came to his rescue and caught the bird.
