I am Beowulf. Everyone says I am a hero, so I have determined that I will go to the aide of Hrothgar. That king of the Danes seems weak to let his men be killed and his country overrun for 12 long winters. I heard of their need when I listened to the scop at the feast last week, then consulted with the seers and advisers for their advice. They have agreed that it is the best thing to do.
Fourteen of our best warriors will be going with me to fight this fiend Grendel. He will never be able to escape us. We are the strongest, bravest men in the world. Soon the Danes will be able to continue celebrating in Herot, their mead hall.
