Geographic: Lisbon; Portugal; Europe
Description: After arriving in Lisbon, Gulliver stayed with the captain of the ship that brought him from New Holland to Portugal, Don Pedro. Gulliver refused to go outside in Lisbon, so after arriving at Don Pedro’s house, he would look out the window, trying to readjust to life in Europe. Eventually Gulliver would go downstairs into the doorway, and eventually out into the street. The same image appears in the 1839 Krabbe edition.
