better than   I�   �Straightway the   feud   with fee��2�А �I   settled�察�to the Wylfings

soul to say to any of the race of man what ruth for me in Heorot Grendel 

with   hate   hath   wrought�察  �what   sudden   harryings。   Hall´folk   fail   me�察  �my 

warriors wane�察�for Wyrd hath swept them into Grendel's grasp。 But God is 

able this deadly foe from his deeds to turn� �Boasted full oft�察�as my beer

house   at   morning   tide   dyed   with   gore�察  �when   the   daylight   broke�察  �all   the 

boards of the benches blood´besprinkled�察�gory the hall�此�I had heroes   the 

less�察  �doughty   dear´ones   that   death   had   reft。      But   sit   to   the   banquet�察�

unbind thy words�察�hardy hero�察�as heart shall prompt thee。;
