What is most likely the Danish perspective on the battle?
D. They are relieved that Grendel is dead and their trials are over now.
The passage illustrates the Danish's relief by knowing that Grendel and his reign of terror have finally died. Their longing wish has been fulfilled, their constant burdens released and their "bale-sorrows" are now relieved, and all of this is due to Beowulf's aid, whom they praise for helping them.
