Beowulf
by Eddie McPherson
BEOWULF: I am Beowulf, son of Ecgtheow. I have come to destroy the demon Grendel.
1ST POET: The Captain was immediately impressed with Beowulf’s quiet strength and confident demeanor.
CAPTAIN: Grendel has slaughtered many men and fear has paralyzed the kingdom. Allow me to warn you in advance: If you plan to confront the creature, don’t expect to return to your home, for surely Grendel will kill you and all your men. If you have any brains at all, you will go aboard your ship again and return home.
