Answer:

It is possible Swift may have been punished for overtly insulting the monarchy or the Church.

Explanation:

In "Gulliver's Travels," Swift uses satire in order to criticize many institutions of society, including the aristocracy, the Church and the monarchy. However, doing so in his time could have been very dangerous. He could have been punished for overtly insulting the monarchy or the Church. Therefore, Swift uses "masks" to hide the identity of the characters he is criticizing.
