Description: In this image we see a group of five Lilliputian officials all of whom have a disapproving look on their faces. Their status is indicated by their different forms of headpieces. Behind them we see Gulliver facing the other way, walking away from them. This image comes after Gulliver has been charged with treason forcing him to leave Lilliput. The same image appears in the 1843 Krabbe edition.
