Answer:

Gulliver's size rightened the Lilliputians more than his Scimitar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the Lilliputians were very small people, thus for them, Gulliver was a giant. He was incredibly big, therefore his scimitar was incredibly big and represented danger. However, his size was the most frightening factor because that meant that his amount of danger was out of their control. Because a being that size could make irreparable damage and be able to defend himself from a counterattack.

The thing that frightens the Lilliputians more than Gulliver's scimitar is his large size. Gulliver was not abnormally tall but the Lilliputians were excessively small. This was the main reason of fear for the small Lilliputians. I hope that this is the answer you were looking for and it has helped you.
