The given passage is spoken by the monster in Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.

Explanation:

Victor Frankenstein had created the monster in his effort to try to learn and create life beyond the normal confines of human scientific ability. But he abhors the very creature he brought forth, abandoning him and thus, depriving him of any form of connection or affection.

The given excerpt from Chapter 17 is when the monster requested his creator Victor to make a companion for him so that he will not be alone. he promises to "will quit the neighborhood of man and dwell in the most savage of places". He implores on him to "make me happy; let me feel gratitude towards you for one benefit". But he admits if he has "no ties and no affections, hatred and vice must be [his] portion". These vices are the result of a "forced solitude", an outcome of Victor's refusal to create a companion for him.

This speech reveals how the monster was desperate for a companion, who will share in his solitude and keep him company. But if Victor refuse to create a companion for him, he threatens he will have hatred and violence in his mind and thus 'haunt' his creator all his life. This speech is also suggestive of the fact that any created being is a social animal, who has to have company and cannot survive alone. All beings need company and it is this social life that allows a man to be civilized and humane.
