Read this excerpt from Frankenstein: . . . I darted up towards my own room. My hand was already on the lock of the door before I

recollected myself. I then paused; and a cold shivering came over me. I threw the door forcibly open . . . but nothing appeared. I stepped fearfully in: the apartment was empty; and my bedroom was also freed from its hideous guest. I could hardly believe that so great a good fortune could have befallen me; but when I became assured that my enemy had indeed fled, I clapped my hands for joy, and ran down to Clerval. Which words best describe the overall tone of this passage? A. Curious and joyful B. Thoughtful and serious C. Troubled and brooding D. Excited and relieved
