Question

Why did the writer falls asleep in gulivers travels?

Answer 1

as to why they thought Gulliver fell asleep on the ground. It would be interesting to hear other people's opinions and ideas.

Answer 2

The Antelope encounters a violent storm in which twelve crewmen die. Six of the crew members, including Gulliver, board a small rowboat to escape. Soon the rowboat capsizes, and Gulliver loses track of his companions. They are never seen again. Gulliver, however, swims safely to shore.

Gulliver lies down on the grass to rest, and soon he falls asleep. When he wakes up, he finds that his arms, legs, and long hair have been tied to the ground with pieces of thread. He can only look up, and the bright sun prevents him from seeing anything.
