The part of the "story" centers on Peter, Martin and Jack, who respectively represent Roman Catholicism, Lutheranism and other dissident Protestant sects. Accused of keeping their coats, the Christian faith, as issued, the brothers immediately proceed to make modifications. Jonathan Swift's historical allegory ridicules conflicts between religious factions, and his digressions offer ironic views of contemporary trends in literature, politics, and theology.
