Where it comes from

Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley wrote it in chapter 4 of Frankenstein; or, the modern prometheus. The sentence itself is on the answer page.

The paragraphs next to it are cryptograms here in their own right, so they are left out too: the medium one from chapter 4, the medium one from chapter 4.

Text from the Project Gutenberg edition, which is in the public domain in the United States.
