“
"I had admired the perfect forms of my cottagers--their grace, beauty, and delicate complexions: but how was I terrified when I viewed myself in a transparent pool! At first I started back, unable to believe that it was indeed I who was reflected in the mirror; and when I became fully convinced that I was in reality the monster that I am, I was filled with the bitterest sensations of despondence and mortification. Alas! I did not yet entirely know the fatal effects of this miserable deformity. 去书内

    This passage from Frankenstein is a poignant exploration of the creature's self - discovery. The contrast between the cottagers' beauty he admired and his own reflection in the pool is striking. His initial disbelief and then the realization of his monstrous appearance fill him with despondence. It highlights the creature's awareness of his isolation and the cruelty of his fate, emphasizing the novel's themes of alienation and the impact of physical appearance on one's self - perception.
