  [Elizabeth and the Gardiners look out the window at Lambton]

  In this image Elizabeth and the Gardiners look out a window at Lambton in Derbyshire. They encountered Mr. Darcy at Pemberley while visiting, and Mr. Gardiner invited him to come dine at Lambton. In this image, Elizabeth and the Gardiners await the carriage bringing Mr. Darcy, his sister, Georgiana, and Mr. Bingley. This scene occurs in chapter 44. The characters are shown in the traditional regency style. Mrs. Gardiner and Elizabeth wear dresses with empire waistlines. Mrs. Gardiner wears a shawl over her dress and a bonnet. Mr. Gardiner wears a waistcoat and tailcoat with a cravat. 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).

  ein Galgen, einen Staatssecretair

  This image depicts a gibbet, which is where the bodies of criminals were hung after their execution. The gibbet was the code for the Secretary of State. This image comes in a description of a conspiracy found by a professor from the Grand Academy on Balnibarbi. This idea is representing code word for terms in the conspiracy that Swift is satirizing. The professor advises that those named in the conspiracy papers be closely monitored at all times, naming specifically while they were using the bathroom, as this is when men were most thoughtful. This conspiracy is thought to be an allusion to the trial of Francis Atterbury, the bishop of Rochester for allegedly plotting with the Jacobites. Atterbury was charged with treason in 1722 and was exiled to France. The same image appears in the 1839 Krabbe edition.

  [Gulliver sleeps outside the city on Blefuscu]

  In this image we see Gulliver sleeping outside the city in Blefuscu. Due to his size, there was nowhere for him to sleep in Blefuscu. Thus, Gulliver was forced to sleep outside, using his overcoat or coverlet as a blanket. In this image we see Gulliver’s size as compared to the buildings surrounding him. Gulliver leans on a large structure with his arms crossed, his head resting in his folded arms. The same image appears in both the 1839 and 1843 Krabbe editions.
