Read Anja’s inference about Hrothgar.Despite Grendel’s success in killing Hrothgar’s men, Hrothgar’s faith in God remained unshaken.

Choice A directly shows Hrothgar trusting in God: he says that God, “in His goodness,” guided Beowulf to the Danes to defend them from Grendel. This supports the inference that Grendel’s killings did not shake Hrothgar’s faith. The other choices describe Beowulf or Wealhtheow speaking, rather than Hrothgar expressing his own faith.
