    Answer:

        The emperor of Blefuscu played an important role. His sensible nature impressed Gulliver. He was an intelligent and farsighted person. He did not let his judgement be impaired either by gratitude or friendship. He always believed in peace. When Gulliver visited his country and the Lilliputian king wanted him bound hand and foot, immediately this wise emperor exercised restraint and without being told, tackled the situation very diplomatically. He rendered all possible help to Gulliver while he was repairing and preparing his boat to leave for his native land. He was also large-hearted. He gave Gulliver many gold coins and a picture of himself at the time of parting. The emperor loved his men. He did not allow Gulliver to take his men to his own country. OR He is the quietest of all the friends. He loves to speak in medical terms. He is probably the most educated and sensible one among the three friends. He makes the most sensible and practical suggestion of a sea trip. He is lazy and overweight. He weighs about 12 stones. He works in a bank. His friends don't have a good opinion about his abilities to work and say that he goes to sleep in the bank. He is not very good at packing, sleeps long and well and wants to be neat and tidy when going to work. His reluctance to work comes out when he suggests that he make the tea while the others row the boat. He enjoys a good meal and can be polite after a good meal.
