in beowulf In a response of two to three sentences, explain how these lines contribute to Grendel's characterization as a monster. "Fell and frantic, and forced from their slumbers Thirty of thanemen; thence he departed Leaping and laughing, his lair to return to, With surfeit of slaughter sallying homeward."

These sentences are describing when Grendel crept into the village and killed thirty men while they were sleeping, after he was done he returned home "leaping and laughing." Can you see why that would contribute to him being a monster? He crept into a village and killed 30 men while they were sleeping and then skipped home joyfully.
