which excerpt from frankenstein most clearly portrays nature as cruel?
o
a. as the day was fair, and the wind favorable, we resolved to go by

we passed rapidly along: the sun was hot, but we were
sheltered from its rays by a kind of canopy, while we enjoyed the
beauty of the scene
o
b. when i awoke i found that the sun had already mounted
considerably. the wind was high, and the waves continually
threatened the safety of my little skiff. i found that the wind was
northeast and must have driven me far from the coast from which
i had embarked.
o
c. the storm appeared to approach it advanced; the
heavens were clouded, and i soon felt the rain coming slowly in
large drops, but its violence quickly
..the darkness and storm increased every minute, and the
thunder burst with a terrific crash over my vivid flashes
of lightning dazzled my eyes, illuminating the lake, making it
appear like a vast sheet of fire.
o
d. "cursed be the day, abhorred devil, in which you first saw light!
cursed (although i curse myself) be the hands that formed you!
you have made me wretched beyond expression."
