Read this passage from Mary Shelley's novel Frankenstein.

"It was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out,
when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open; it breathed hard, and a
convulsive motion agitated its limbs."
