    The sad ending of Frankenstein tells us a truth that revenge cannot help people get satiation, love, happiness and friendship from hatred.
    In the midst of the book, the monster witnesses the love, propinquity, and harmony among people in the cottage. He urges to get the same things as people do. However, his ugly appearance makes people feel horrible and expel him. The eager of seeking for such a happiness, love and harmony, he starts to begrudge and envy Frankenstein. So he decides to fall himself into the infernal of revenge and make Frankenstein have the same feeling of having nothing. First, he kills the cousin of Frankenstein, then imputes to Justine, so that the harmony and peace of Frankenstein's family are annihilated. Next, he murders Henry in order to break the friendship of Frankenstein.  Finally, he commits the crime of killing Elizabeth to destroy Frankenstein's love. However, the ridiculous thing is that the monster feels sorrowful and weeps over the dead body of Frankenstein. In the end, he jumps down into the dark ocean to terminate his life.
     Therefore, the process and the sad ending demonstrate the truth that revenge cannot help people get happiness, love and harmony.
