Description: In this image Gulliver is seated at a table looking at a Lilliputian carriage. There is a woman from the court inside the carriage that Gulliver speaks to. Two men are on the edge of the table talking to each other. These men are the driver and the finance minister. They had come to inform Gulliver that he would have to leave Lilliput as it was too expensive to keep him there and feed and clothe him. The same image appears in the 1839 Krabbe edition.
