From the book
A prompt from this edition.
Every chapter of the Commonplace Edition closes with a prompt.
Commonplace
Gulliver breaks the strings on his left arm, and lies still only after a second volley of arrows. Soon he calls his surrender “the promise of honour I made them,” adding, “for so I interpreted my submissive behaviour.” Bracket every reason he gives for sparing the little people. Which of them would he have had without the arrows?
