The king's servants would bring me food and drink three times a day， as well as other things I might need.　　I also was told that I would have teachers to help me learn the Lilliputian language. This made me happy， because I wanted to talk with these amazing little people. I felt sure that I could learn the Lilliputians'language easily， since I had studied so many other languages in my travels.　　When the king finished speaking to me， he turned to leave. Some soldiers stayed behind and gathered around me. At first， I thought these soldiers were protecting the Lilliputians from me.However， I soon learned that the men were really protecting me from the Lilliputians! After a few moments， a group of the little people surrounded me and began to talk angrily. When they thought the soldiers weren't looking， a small group of men grabbed some stones and threw them at me.Although these stones were extremely tiny， I did not like being hit with them. I certainly did not want to be hit in the eyes.　　When the leader of the soldiers saw what was happening， he and two other soldiers came and tied up the men who had thrown the stones. After they had done these， the soldiers dragged them over to me so that I would punish them. The men looked terribly afraid， and I realized that I could punish them by scaring them a little.
