Which three parts of this excerpt from Frankenstein show that the creature is innocent and helpless like a newborn child when it
Debora [2.8K]

Part I 

"A strange multiplicity of sensations seized me, and I saw, felt, heard, and smelt, at the same time. "

This part of the excerpt shows that the speaker is experiencing impulses of a newborn who is just starting to be aware of his senses. 

Part II

"I knew, and could distinguish, nothing." 

This reflects innocence and lack of experience or knowledge.
