Soon after we arrived, the whole family sat down at the table for dinner. There was a large piece of meat on a plate about eight meters across. The farmer put me on the table, with some small pieces of bread and meat in front of me. 1 The farmer and his family were glad to watch me eating food with my own small knife and fork. But when I started walking across the table to the farmer, his youngest son, a boy of about ten, picked me up by the legs. 2 Fortunately his father took me away at once, and angrily hit the boy hard on the head.
Just then I heard a noise behind me. 3 I turned my head and saw a huge cat, three times larger than one of our cows. 4 But in fact, because I showed no fear, there was no danger, and the cat even seemed a little afraid of me.
At the end of dinner, a servant came in with the farmer's one-year-old son in her arms. 5 His mother smiled and put me in his hand. When he picked me up and put my head in his mouth, I shouted so loudly that he dropped me. Luckily, I was not hurt, but it showed me how dangerous life was going to be in Brobdingnag.
