Gulliver‘s Travels pgs 79-85

Gulliver begins with his account of Glumdalclitch, the daughter of the farmer who found him at the beginning of this section of the novel. He praises and compliments her on her many skills and her treatment of him. The Farmer has a neighbor visit to see Gulliver perform a few tricks and the neighbor gives the farmer the idea to take Gulliver out on the road for money. Glumdalclitch goes with them to teach the protagonist more of the language as well as keep him safe. They travel through many towns and cities and he is shown to hundreds of people. This portion of my reading ended with their arrival in the metropolis where he was preparing to once again perform for profit.

I think the most important aspect of my reading today was his relationship with Glumdalclitch. She is his primary caregiver and teacher and he obviously has much respect for her despite her being much younger than him.
