• It's Alive!

I shall relate events
that impressed me with feelings which,
from what I had been, have made me what I am.

It’s Alive!!!

I was a poor, helpless, miserable wretch;
I knew, and could distinguish, nothing;
but feeling pain invade me on all sides,
I sat down and wept.

Unfeeling, heartless creator !

You had endowed me with perceptions and passions

and then cast me abroad an object

for the scorn and horror of mankind.

I will work at your destruction,
nor finish until I desolate your heart,
so that you shall curse the hour of your birth.

cursed creator! Why did I live ?
Inflamed by pain,
I vowed eternal hatred and vengeance to all mankind.

It’s Alive!!!

Frankenstein, or the Modern Prometheus
Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley (1797-1851)
