Answer :

Octaviana
Beowulf describes himself to Hrothgar. He praises his own physical strength, recalling how his own warriors and earls had urged him to come to Hrothgar's help and get rid of Grendel for him. He then proceeds with promises that he will "purify" Hrothgar's great hall Heorot from this insatiable monster.
