Beowulf's is revealed when he refuses to use weapons to fight the monster grendel.
a) empathy
b) self-assurance
c) embarrassment
d) faithfulness

In this  Old English poem we can read how Beowulf proudly asserted: "When it comes to fighting, I count myself / as dangerous any day as Grendel" after having removed his iron breast mail and weapons to the battle with the evil creature.
