Question
Write any one of these stories, not as told by Gulliver, but by some other person.
Solution
No sooner was Gulliver set free than he asked if he could see the city. After all, he wanted to explore this place, which was so different from the others that he had been to. The king, who was convinced that Gulliver was harmless, was pleased to grant Gulliver the permission. Authorities immediately gave out orders instructing Lilliputians to stay inside lest they get trampled under the gigantic Gullivers feet.
Even as curious onlookers kept looking at him in wonder, Gulliver continued exploring the place. Eventually, he reached the place where the king's beautiful house was located. He was amazed by its beauty. The king's house was surrounded by a garden and had beautiful rooms. He also saw the queen and some of the young princes, who were greatly pleased by Gulliver's visit.
