The poetic techniques that are illustrated in the opening lines of this poem are personification and enjambment. 
Personification is when inanimate objects have human qualities, such as <em>and my skin has betrayed me.
</em>Enjambment is when the though found in one line is transferred into the following one, such as in <em>still sucks his thumb/in secret.</em>

When Gulliver is repulsed by Pedro de Mendez and Gulliver's own family, what does his repulsion show about his character?
Aloiza [94]

It shows an evolution which will alienate him from society for the rest of his life. Indeed, Gulliver has found a race of talking horses that have the perfect society with no crime or vices or any form of corruption. These race of Houyhnhnms is the master of the island and rules over savage, dirty and grotesque humanoid creatures which are called the Yahoos. After spending sometime in the island, Gulliver feels more Houyhnhnm than human and considers humans a backward species. It is to be noted nonetheless, that Gulliver is rescued by a Portuguese captain that is very generous and sensitive and his refusal and disgust to acknowledge this implies that he still has the vice of pride very much ingrained in his nature.
