Whe I woke up, the sun was shinihd. I tried to get up, but I couidn t move my hands or feet. I was lying on my back. Hundreds of thin but strong cords fastened my arms and legs to the ground. I could not turn my head because even my hair,which was very long, was tied to the ground.
Soon I heard some voices. Something was moving along my left leg, up my body and to my face. When I looked down i saw a very little man, not more than six inches tall. Many more small men came after him. I was so surprised that i gave out a loud cry. The small people were afraid of me - they jumped back. Some fell off my body and hurt themselvs baldy. I felt a hundred arrows on my hand, face and body.
After that an important man addressed me. I did not know his language but I guessed the meaning of his speech: I am in the country called Lilliput. Lilliputians live here. I must not hurt them. They are not going to hurt me.
