In this image Edward Ferrars and Elinor walk through the grounds of Delaford, Colonel Brandon’s estate. Edward Ferrars began working as the parish priest in Delaford, after Colonel Brandon offered him the post. Edward praises Colonel Brandon and his property, remarking that he would be happy to call Colonel Brandon his brother, implying he wished to see Marianne marry Colonel Brandon. This scene occurs in chapter 50. The characters are shown in the traditional regency style. Elinor wears a regency dress and carries a parasol to protect her from the sun. Edward Ferrars wears a waistcoat and tailcoat, with a top hat. 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.

The creole woman in the image is holding the hair of a native woman and appears to be holding an axe of sorts to cut the woman’s hair. The caption at the bottom of the image reads, en los pueblos [in the pueblos].

In this image we see a group of rabbits running. The image represents children who have been reprimanded, who then become too shy to answer again for fear of being incorrect. This serves as a detriment to children’s learning and is thus forbidden in Lilliput. The rabbits represent children who have been punished and then run away for fear of being punished again. This image appears in the appendix to Gulliver’s travels in Lilliput. In the appendix, Gulliver discusses various aspects of life on Lilliput, including education, employment, approaches to science and philosophy, language, and interactions between people in the community. The same image appears in the 1843 Krabbe edition.
