“…the wounded deer dragging its fainting limbs to some untrodden brake there to gaze upon the arrow which pierced it…” (Shelley 95)
Shelley is comparing the wounded deer to Frankenstein, though he is not injured in the physical form, but emotionally he is severely wounded. Each day that passes he has to look himself in the mirror and realize that he is the creator of the ‘evil’ that causes his loved ones pain time and time again. The deer must face the arrow that wounded him but Frankenstein must face himself, every day.
