I
remembered
only
,
and
it
was
with
a
bitter
anguish
that
I
reflected
on
it
,
to
order
that
my
chemical
instruments
should
be
packed
to
go
with
me
.
Filled
with
dreary
imaginations
,
I
passed
through
many
beautiful
and
majestic
scenes
,
but
my
eyes
were
fixed
and
unobserving
.
I
could
only
think
of
the
bourne
of
my
travels
and
the
work
which
was
to
occupy
me
whilst
they
endured
.
After
some
days
spent
in
listless
indolence
,
during
which
I
traversed
many
leagues
,
I
arrived
at
Strasbourg
,
where
I
waited
two
days
for
Clerval
.
He
came
.
Alas
,
how
great
was
the
contrast
between
us
!
He
was
alive
to
every
new
scene
,
joyful
when
he
saw
the
beauties
of
the
setting
sun
,
and
more
happy
when
he
beheld
it
rise
and
recommence
a
new
day
.
He
pointed
out
to
me
the
shifting
colours
of
the
landscape
and
the
appearances
of
the
sky
.
"
This
is
what
it
is
to
live
,
"
he
cried
;
"
how
I
enjoy
existence
!
But
you
,
my
dear
Frankenstein
,
wherefore
are
you
desponding
and
sorrowful
!
"
In
truth
,
I
was
occupied
by
gloomy
thoughts
and
neither
saw
the
descent
of
the
evening
star
nor
the
golden
sunrise
reflected
in
the
Rhine
.
And
you
,
my
friend
,
would
be
far
more
amused
with
the
journal
of
Clerval
,
who
observed
the
scenery
with
an
eye
of
feeling
and
delight
,
than
in
listening
to
my
reflections
.
I
,
a
miserable
wretch
,
haunted
by
a
curse
that
shut
up
every
avenue
to
enjoyment
.
We
had
agreed
to
descend
the
Rhine
in
a
boat
from
Strasbourg
to
Rotterdam
,
whence
we
might
take
shipping
for
London
.
During
this
voyage
we
passed
many
willowy
islands
and
saw
several
beautiful
towns
.
We
stayed
a
day
at
Mannheim
,
and
on
the
fifth
from
our
departure
from
Strasbourg
,
arrived
at
Mainz
.
The
course
of
the
Rhine
below
Mainz
becomes
much
more
picturesque
.
The
river
descends
rapidly
and
winds
between
hills
,
not
high
,
but
steep
,
and
of
beautiful
forms
.
We
saw
many
ruined
castles
standing
on
the
edges
of
precipices
,
surrounded
by
black
woods
,
high
and
inaccessible
.
This
part
of
the
Rhine
,
indeed
,
presents
a
singularly
variegated
landscape
.
In
one
spot
you
view
rugged
hills
,
ruined
castles
overlooking
tremendous
precipices
,
with
the
dark
Rhine
rushing
beneath
;
and
on
the
sudden
turn
of
a
promontory
,
flourishing
vineyards
with
green
sloping
banks
and
a
meandering
river
and
populous
towns
occupy
the
scene
.
We
travelled
at
the
time
of
the
vintage
and
heard
the
song
of
the
labourers
as
we
glided
down
the
stream
.
Even
I
,
depressed
in
mind
,
and
my
spirits
continually
agitated
by
gloomy
feelings
,
even
I
was
pleased
.
I
lay
at
the
bottom
of
the
boat
,
and
as
I
gazed
on
the
cloudless
blue
sky
,
I
seemed
to
drink
in
a
tranquillity
to
which
I
had
long
been
a
stranger
.
And
if
these
were
my
sensations
,
who
can
describe
those
of
Henry
?
He
felt
as
if
he
had
been
transported
to
fairy-land
and
enjoyed
a
happiness
seldom
tasted
by
man
.
"
I
have
seen
,
"
he
said
,
"
the
most
beautiful
scenes
of
my
own
country
;
I
have
visited
the
lakes
of
Lucerne
and
Uri
,
where
the
snowy
mountains
descend
almost
perpendicularly
to
the
water
,
casting
black
and
impenetrable
shades
,
which
would
cause
a
gloomy
and
mournful
appearance
were
it
not
for
the
most
verdant
islands
that
believe
the
eye
by
their
gay
appearance
;
I
have
seen
this
lake
agitated
by
a
tempest
,
when
the
wind
tore
up
whirlwinds
of
water
and
gave
you
an
idea
of
what
the
water-spout
must
be
on
the
great
ocean
;
and
the
waves
dash
with
fury
the
base
of
the
mountain
,
where
the
priest
and
his
mistress
were
overwhelmed
by
an
avalanche
and
where
their
dying
voices
are
still
said
to
be
heard
amid
the
pauses
of
the
nightly
wind
;
I
have
seen
the
mountains
of
La
Valais
,
and
the
Pays
de
Vaud
;
but
this
country
,
Victor
,
pleases
me
more
than
all
those
wonders
.
The
mountains
of
Switzerland
are
more
majestic
and
strange
,
but
there
is
a
charm
in
the
banks
of
this
divine
river
that
I
never
before
saw
equalled
.
Look
at
that
castle
which
overhangs
yon
precipice
;
and
that
also
on
the
island
,
almost
concealed
amongst
the
foliage
of
those
lovely
trees
;
and
now
that
group
of
labourers
coming
from
among
their
vines
;
and
that
village
half
hid
in
the
recess
of
the
mountain
.
Oh
,
surely
the
spirit
that
inhabits
and
guards
this
place
has
a
soul
more
in
harmony
with
man
than
those
who
pile
the
glacier
or
retire
to
the
inaccessible
peaks
of
the
mountains
of
our
own
country
.
"
Clerval
!
Beloved
friend
!
Even
now
it
delights
me
to
record
your
words
and
to
dwell
on
the
praise
of
which
you
are
so
eminently
deserving
.
He
was
a
being
formed
in
the
"
very
poetry
of
nature
.
"
His
wild
and
enthusiastic
imagination
was
chastened
by
the
sensibility
of
his
heart
.
His
soul
overflowed
with
ardent
affections
,
and
his
friendship
was
of
that
devoted
and
wondrous
nature
that
the
world-minded
teach
us
to
look
for
only
in
the
imagination
.
But
even
human
sympathies
were
not
sufficient
to
satisfy
his
eager
mind
.
The
scenery
of
external
nature
,
which
others
regard
only
with
admiration
,
he
loved
with
ardour
:
--
--
--
The
sounding
cataract
Haunted
him
like
a
passion
:
the
tall
rock
,
The
mountain
,
and
the
deep
and
gloomy
wood
,
Their
colours
and
their
forms
,
were
then
to
him
