Mary Shelley

在小說的第一章中，沃爾頓船長(zhǎng)救起了冰海上的男子——弗蘭肯斯坦，由此，弗蘭肯斯坦向沃爾頓船長(zhǎng)講述起他的童年時(shí)光和“造人”的故事。這些，你都記得嗎？

I got closer and closer to him. Then a great storm started. The ice began to break， and the sea carried him away from me. My sledge was broken， and I lost my dogs. I was left on a piece of ice that was becoming smaller all the time. Many hours went by， and then I saw your ship. The rest， you know.

I ask you， Captain Walton， to chase the monster and kill him. Do not listen to what he says. He knows how to argue， and perhaps you will feel sorry for him. But remember that he is evil. Remember the deaths of William， Justine， Henry Clerval， Elizabeth， my father... and remember me， Victor Frankenstein.

There is no more for me to say， except that I  can only say thank you to you， Captain Walton， for your help and kindness. Thank you also for listening to my story. I want you to tell the world that the monster is a danger to everyone.

I know that I have only a few hours left to live， but I can feel my loved ones near me， and I welcome death.

Goodbye. This is the end of Victor Frankensteins story.

What request did Victor Frankenstein make when he was about to finish sharing his story with Captain Walton？
