Frankenstein

Chapter3
5/17

I was new to sorrow, but it did not the less alarm me.

I was unwilling to quit the sight of those that remained to me, and above all, I desired to see my sweet Elizabeth in some degree consoled.
She indeed veiled her grief and strove to act the comforter to us all.
She looked steadily on life and assumed its duties with courage and zeal.

She devoted herself to those whom she had been taught to call her uncle and cousins.

Never was she so enchanting as at this time, when she recalled the sunshine of her smiles and spent them upon us.
She forgot even her own regret in her endeavours to make us forget.
The day of my departure at length arrived.

Clerval spent the last evening with us.
