  [horses pulling a carriage]

  Here we see two horses pulling a carriage. The Houyhnhnms asks about the horses in Europe and how they live. Gulliver explains that humans or yahoos govern the country and care for the horses or Houyhnhnms.

  [Lilliputian Royal Official reads Gulliver’s sentence publicly]

  Here we see a Lilliputian royal official reading Gulliver’s sentence of blinding via arrows publicly. This was common practice and was meant to show the leniency of the Emperor who spared Gulliver from death when he was faced with charges of treason. This can be read as an allusion to the Parliamentary Proclamation of 1715 praising George I of England’s mercy regarding the Jacobite's following a revolt – some of the rebels were executed despite this proclamation of mercy. In this image we see an official reading from a scroll with his mouth open. He is accompanied by another official and a woman who hands out copies of the proclamation to the crowd. This proclamation would have outlined the charges against Gulliver as well as his punishment. This scene takes place in the centre of the city and we can see a fountain behind the crowd and several other buildings. The same image appears in the 1843 Krabbe edition.

  [Elizabeth relates Mr. Darcy’s letter to Jane]

  In this image Elizabeth relates the contents of Mr. Darcy’s letter to Jane. In this letter, Mr. Darcy wrote that Mr. Bingley loved Jane, but Mr. Darcy felt that Jane did not reciprocate his love. As a result, Mr. Darcy encouraged Mr. Bingley to leave Netherfield. This scene occurs in chapter 40. The characters are shown in the traditional regency style. Jane and Elizabeth wear the regency style with dresses with empire waistlines. The regency period dated to the early nineteenth century (1811-1820) when George, Prince of Wales, later George IV (r. 1820-1830), reigned as regent for his mentally ill father, King George III (r. 1760-1820). The regency period is associated with the rise of neoclassicism in art and fashion.

  Cvsco urbs nobilissima & opule[n]tissima Peruani regni in occide[n]tali parte sita, in qua habitabat magnus ille Rex Atabaliba quo tempore Hispani regnum illud armis sibi vindicarunt.

  The Peruvian city of Cuzco, the capital of the Inca Empire, is shown from above. The city is laid out in an orderly fashion, with wide streets running in straight lines dividing city blocks. The city is surrounded on three sides by a square stone wall with towers built at each corner and in the middle of each wall. On the west side of the city there is a palace built atop several pyramidal layers and nestled into the hillside. There are guards armed with spears standing on each layer of ground leading up to the palace. A group of Inca people form a procession heading towards the palace. Four people carry a litter on their shoulders, upon which the Incan king Atahualpa sits. Atahualpa was the last Inca Emperor (or Sapa Inca) to officially rule before the Spanish conquistadors established their control. Along the bottom of the image, a group of Inca people on the left engage in acrobatic activities and a group on the right hold finely crafted statuettes, probably of gold. This image is identical to one found on page 6-7 of Frankfurt, 1596.

  [Act XV – Areusa Recoils from Centurio While Elicia Waits for Centurio to Depart]

  Elicia goes to Areusa’s house to inform her about the deaths of Celestina, Sempronio, and Pármeno. As she approaches the door, she overhears Areusa in a fit of rage. She realizes that Areusa is yelling at someone (Centurio), and waits for him to leave before entering. Areusa sees that Elicia is in mourning and asks her to explain why, and Elicia tells her about the deaths. With a desire to avenge the deaths that were caused as a result of Calisto's love for Melibea, they decide to ask Centurio to kill Calisto.In this image, we see Centurio reaching out toward Areusa, who appears to be pulling away from him. She is wearing a robe and a veil, while he is wearing a hat. In his left hand he is holding a sword, the tip of which is resting on the ground. To the right, we see Elicia awaiting the departure of Centurio (in the narrative she waits outside the house). She is wearing a robe and a veil, and her posture and expression convey an air of sadness.The entire image is identical to the one found on page 246 of the text
