Description: Here we see Gulliver throwing empty wine barrels. Gulliver throws the barrels away and the Lilliputians run in fear. The Lilliputian named Hekinah Degul told Gulliver to throw the barrels. These Lilliputians can be seen at Gulliver’s feet. All around Gulliver we see various ladders and a ramp which the Lilliputians used to climb on Gulliver. Gulliver is still tied up on the shore, with a cityscape in the background. The same image appears in both the 1839 and 1843 Krabbe editions.
