More spare parts from Frankenstein. Proceed in the interests of science!
it was on a dreary night of november that i beheld the accomplishment of my toils with an anxiety that almost amounted to agony i collected the instruments of life around me that i might infuse a spark of being into the lifeless thing that lay at my feet 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
how can i describe my emotions at this catastrophe or how delineate the wretch whom with such infinite pains and care i had endeavoured to form his limbs were in roportion and i had selected his features as beautiful beautiful great god his yellow skin scarcely covered the work of muscles and arteries beneath his hair was of a lustrous black and flowing his teeth of a pearly whiteness but these luxuriances only formed a more horrid contrast with his watery eyes that seemed almost of the same colour as the dun-white sockets in which they were set his shrivelled complexion and straight black lips

It was on a dreary, night of November that I beheld the accomplishment of my toils. With anxiety that almost amounted to agony. I collected the instruments of around me that I might infuse a spark of being into the lifeless thing that lay at my feet. 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 extingished light, I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open. It breathed hard , and a convulsive motion agitated its limb.
How can I describe my emotions at this catastrophe, or how delineate the wretch whom, with such infinite pains and care. I had endeavoured to form, his limbs were in proportion, and I had selected his beautiful-beautiful great god. His yellow skin, scarcely covered the work of muscles and arteries, beneath his hair was of a lustrous black and flowing. His teeth, of a pealy whiteness, but these luxuriances only formed a more horrid contrast. With his watery eyes that seemed almost of the same colour as the dun-white sockets, in which they were set. His shrivelled complexion and straight black lips.

His limbs were in roportion, and I had selected his features as beautiful, beautiful! Great god! His yellow skin scarcely covered the work of muscles and arteries beneath. His hair was of lustrous black and flowing. His teeth of pearly whiteness, but these luxuriances only formed a more horrid contrast with his wartery eyes, that seemed almost of the same colour, as the dun-white sockets in which they were set.

This is my attempt at punctuation. The firts sentence was easy; it started out with an introductary clause. I ended this sentence after he behald his accomplishmants. The next sentence was a little more difficult. "With an anxiety that almost amounted to agony", seems to be an itroductory clause. "I collected the instruments of life around me", this is the action taking place. "that I might infuse a spark of being into the lifeless thing that lay at my feet." I am not certian that this should be semicolon. This statement does have an action, and a subject.
