What is it?                                                    (Three Men In A Boat)                   (5)  

Answer:

    Gulliver is a lover of voyages. He spends many years of his life in travelling. He faces many difficulties during his first voyage. He is shipwrecked and somehow swims to the shore. He is so tired that he goes to sleep. When he wakes up, he finds himself in chains. He is surrounded by a crowd of human creatures who are just six inches in height. Somehow on this island he becomes friendly with the Lilliputians Gulliver. He stays there, but some men feel sore about his eating and drinking. A scandal is also spread about him. In the end some charges are framed and he is going to be impeached. Somehow Gulliver escapes from there and takes shelter in the island of Blefuscu. OR The Kinght in the story was separated from his group and had strayed into the dark and gloomy woods. He was completely lost and wondered about looking for an exit. He was so bruised and weary that he gave up all hope of living and sat down to die. But just then he was saved by a lovely maiden who led him through the deep woods. There he saw a beautiful vision bathed in a glorious light. He forgot his pain and was greatful for having strayed and beheld such a sight. The moral is that a man may stray and be lost in the dark, gloomy woods of despair and sorrow. But just when everything seems lost, God or his angels help him find the way out and revive his hopes.
