Which motif best connects to the following passage from chapter 16?

‘For some days I haunted the spot where these scenes had taken place, sometimes wishing to see you, sometimes resolved to quit the world and its miseries forever. At length I wandered towards these mountains, and have ranged through their immense recesses, consumed by a burning passion which you alone can gratify. We may not part until you have promised to comply with my requisition. I am alone and miserable; man will not associate with me; but one as deformed and horrible as myself would not deny herself to me. My companion must be of the same species and have the same defects. This being you must create.’

• Place and time connects best to this passage because it is written in the past tense and this motif focuses on the relationship between the past and the present.

• The supernatural and the real connects best to this passage because the creature says he is "consumed by a passion" which alludes to being consumed by hell's fires

• Sexual power best connects to this passage because the creature demands a, "companion...of the same species and have the same defects" without considering her possible desire.

• none of these
