Title: II. 15
Period: 1800-1850;
Description: Here we see Gulliver’s luggage. This image appears at the beginning of the ninth chapter, as Gulliver prepares to leave Glubbdubdrib and return to Luggnagg, and from there he will sail to Japan, then finally home to England. In the third part of the story, Gulliver travels more frequently than in any other part. In this chapter we see Gulliver’s trunk, hat, walking stick, shoes, and book. There is a letter L on the book because it is the first letter of the chapter. The same image appears in the 1839 Krabbe edition.
