Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Which character is described in these lines?
"Too loathsome and lasting. Not longer he tarried,
But one night after continued his slaughter
Shameless and shocking, shrinking but little
From malice and murder; they mastered him fully."
Answer:
Grendel
Step-by-step explanation:
The passage shown above was taken from the epic poem "Beowulf" and features a showy, mean, cruel, dominating creature with murderous habits. That creature is Grendel, the villainous big of Beowulf's histporia, which is a very strong monstrous, powerful creature that terrorizes citizens of Denmark, causing terror between them, until Beowul arrives in the city and defeats him in a fight.
