What are Victor’s first words to the creature (quote!)? What do you think about this as his first ever address to the creature?

Chapters 9-10

From the text:

"Devil," I exclaimed, "do you dare approach me? And do not you fear the fierce vengeance of my arm wreaked on your miserable head? Begone, vile insect! Or rather, stay, that I may trample you to dust! And, oh! That I could, with the extinction of your miserable existence, restore those victims whom you have so diabolically murdered!"he

My first reaction to this quote remains a question...... why is Victor so quick to blame the creation and deny his own responsibility?
