The symbol of clothing recurs. Gulliver acquires this new set of clothes as he enters this new society and begins to acquire a new perspective. From Glumdalclitch’s perspective, Gulliver is a beloved being deserving humane treatment but, for her father and his neighbor, Gulliver is simply a business opportunity. The farmer capitalizes on how strange Gulliver appears in his countrymen’s perspective. Gulliver recently privileged moral power over physical power when he requested the farmer’s son be spared a beating, but now that he is being physically abused himself (by being manipulated and overworked) he supports abuse for his abusers. Note how Gulliver is shown off for money just as Gulliver showed off the Lilliputian animals for money in England.
