Question

Which character is described in these lines? (10 points)

Lord of the Scyldings, this single petition?
Not to refuse me, defender of warriors,
Friend-lord of folks, so far have I sought thee,
That I may unaided, my earlmen assisting me,
This brave-mooded war-band, purify Heorot.

Beowulf
Grendel
Hrothgar
Higelac


I have no idea which one this question could be, and this is the last question for one of my assignments due soon. Please help! Thank you in advance!

Well, from research, Beowulf is talking to King Hrothgar here.

So, really, it automatically cuts out D as the answer.

I don't think it is describing Beowulf because he is the one speaking here. So that cuts out A.

However, considering that Beowulf is talking to Hrothgar, I would think the answer to this question is C.

I hope this helps, even though I have not read a lot of this story yet. :)
