Select the correct answer. Read the adapted excerpt from Gulliver’s Travels by Jonathan Swift.

Soon after, I heard a general shout, with frequent repetitions of the words Peplom selan, and I felt great numbers of people on my left side, relaxing the cords to such a degree that I was able to turn upon my right, and to get a little ease. But, before this, they had daubed my face and both my hands with a sort of ointment very pleasant to the smell, which, in a few minutes, removed all the smart of their arrows. These circumstances, added to the refreshment I had received by their victuals and drink, which were very nourishing, disposed me to sleep. I slept about eight hours, as I was afterwards assured; and it was no wonder, for the physicians, by the emperor's order, had mingled a sleepy potion in the drink.

A.

B.
The narrator is injured and ends up sleeping due to the tonic he drinks.
C.
