'
Frankenstein
!
you
belong
then
to
my
enemy
--
to
him
towards
whom
I
have
sworn
eternal
revenge
;
you
shall
be
my
first
victim
.
'
512
"
The
child
still
struggled
and
loaded
me
with
epithets
which
carried
despair
to
my
heart
;
I
grasped
his
throat
to
silence
him
,
and
in
a
moment
he
lay
dead
at
my
feet
.
513
"
I
gazed
on
my
victim
,
and
my
heart
swelled
with
exultation
and
hellish
triumph
;
clapping
my
hands
,
I
exclaimed
,
'
I
too
can
create
desolation
;
my
enemy
is
not
invulnerable
;
this
death
will
carry
despair
to
him
,
and
a
thousand
other
miseries
shall
torment
and
destroy
him
.

As
I
fixed
my
eyes
on
the
child
,
I
saw
something
glittering
on
his
breast
.
I
took
it
;
it
was
a
portrait
of
a
most
lovely
woman
.
In
spite
of
my
malignity
,
it
softened
and
attracted
me
.
For
a
few
moments
I
gazed
with
delight
on
her
dark
eyes
,
fringed
by
deep
lashes
,
and
her
lovely
lips
;
but
presently
my
rage
returned
;
I
remembered
that
I
was
forever
deprived
of
the
delights
that
such
beautiful
creatures
could
bestow
and
that
she
whose
resemblance
I
contemplated
would
,
in
regarding
me
,
have
changed
that
air
of
divine
benignity
to
one
expressive
of
disgust
and
affright
.
515
"
Can
you
wonder
that
such
thoughts
transported
me
with
rage
?
I
only
wonder
that
at
that
moment
,
instead
of
venting
my
sensations
in
exclamations
and
agony
,
I
did
not
rush
among
mankind
and
perish
in
the
attempt
to
destroy
them
.
516
"
While
l
was
overcome
by
these
feelings
,
I
left
the
spot
where
I
had
committed
the
murder
,
and
seeking
a
more
secluded
hiding-place
,
I
entered
a
barn
which
had
appeared
to
me
to
be
empty
.
A
woman
was
sleeping
on
some
straw
;
she
was
young
,
not
indeed
so
beautiful
as
her
whose
portrait
I
held
,
but
of
an
agreeable
aspect
and
blooming
in
the
loveliness
of
youth
and
health
.
Here
,
I
thought
,
is
one
of
those
whose
joy-imparting
smiles
are
bestowed
on
all
but
me
.
And
then
I
bent
over
her
and
whispered
,
'
Awake
,
fairest
,
thy
lover
is
near
--
he
who
would
give
his
life
but
to
obtain
one
look
of
affection
from
thine
eyes
;
my
beloved
,
awake
!
'
517
"
The
sleeper
stirred
;
a
thrill
of
terror
ran
through
me
.
Should
she
indeed
awake
,
and
see
me
,
and
curse
me
,
and
denounce
the
murderer
?

Thus
would
she
assuredly
act
if
her
darkened
eyes
opened
and
she
beheld
me
.
The
thought
was
madness
;
it
stirred
the
fiend
within
me
--
not
I
,
but
she
,
shall
suffer
;
the
murder
I
have
committed
because
I
am
forever
robbed
of
all
that
she
could
give
me
,
she
shall
atone
.
The
crime
had
its
source
in
her
;
be
hers
the
punishment
!
Thanks
to
the
lessons
of
Felix
and
the
sanguinary
laws
of
man
,
I
had
learned
now
to
work
mischief
.
I
bent
over
her
and
placed
the
portrait
securely
in
one
of
the
folds
of
her
dress
.
She
moved
again
,
and
I
fled
.
519
"
For
some
days
I
haunted
the
spot
where
these
scenes
had
taken
place
,
sometimes
wishing
to
see
you
,
sometimes
resolved
to
quit
the
world
and
its
miseries
forever
.
At
length
I
wandered
towards
these
mountains
,
and
have
ranged
through
their
immense
recesses
,
consumed
by
a
burning
passion
which
you
alone
can
gratify
.
We
may
not
part
until
you
have
promised
to
comply
with
my
requisition
.
I
am
alone
and
miserable
;
man
will
not
associate
with
me
;
but
one
as
deformed
and
horrible
as
myself
would
not
deny
herself
to
me
.
My
companion
must
be
of
the
same
species
and
have
the
same
defects
.
This
being
you
must
create
.
"

The
being
finished
speaking
and
fixed
his
looks
upon
me
in
the
expectation
of
a
reply
.
But
I
was
bewildered
,
perplexed
,
and
unable
to
arrange
my
ideas
sufficiently
to
understand
the
full
extent
of
his
proposition
.
He
continued
,
