ABSTRACT
Beowulf’s death the end of Hygelac is told once more at some length (p. 216). In the same way also the tale of Grendel’s defeat, flight and death is closed on p. 64, but still his flight and death are once more introduced on p. 77, and on p. 163 comes back yet again with the remark that Grendel had not murdered all Hrothgar’s heroes, at which the complaint is made that the Gothlanders were then still heathens.
