Read Micah’s inference about Beowulf. Beowulf does not fear death.

Read the passage from Beowulf.

If Grendel wins, it will be a gruesome day;
he will glut himself on the Geats in the war-hall,
swoop without fear on that flower of manhood
as on others before. Then my face won’t be there
to be covered in death: he will carry me away
as he goes to ground, gorged and bloodied;
he will run gloating with my raw corpse
and feed on it alone, in a cruel frenzy,
fouling his moor-nest. No need then
to lament for long or lay out my body:
if the battle takes me, send back
this breast-webbing that Weland fashioned
and Hrethel gave me, to Lord Hygelac.
Fate goes ever as fate must."

Which sentence or phrase from the passage most likely helped Micah make his inference?Which excerpt from the modern translation of Beowulf most strongly reflects the half-line style of Old English poetry?

- Fate goes ever as fate must.

- "will go and ask him  about your coming here, then hurry back."

Explanation:

The phrase 'fate goes ...must' most aptly assists Micah in making his deduction regarding Beowulf. It shows that he now understands that destiny always goes its own way and therefore, he concludes that Beowulf has no dread of being died. He thinks upon the consequences of Grendel winning the battle and thus, he makes his decision.

The excerpt 'will go and ask him...back' from Beowulf's modern translation steadily throws light upon that half-line pattern employed in Old English poetry. This reflects that old style of English poetry divided a line into two-halves with two emphasized syllables and employed an abrupt pause in the middle of the sentence.
