is feeling sorry for himself.
This chapter is narrated by the creature. We see how the creature fends for himself and how he adapts to life without any help.
This is in the first person narrative. This chapter is from the creatures point of view. We will look at the creatures side of the story.
The creature speaks with intellegence "considerable difficulty" he uses elaborate vocabularly.

The quote "Half Frightened" makes us feel sympathy for the creature because he has no one to comfort him and to help him get through the night. The creature is scared of the dark this shows us he has emotions of a child as most children are scared of the dark.
