Question

In a response of two to three sentences, explain how these lines contribute to Beowulf's characterization as a hero.
"The nickers by night, bore numberless sorrows,
The Weders avenged (woes had they suffered)
Enemies ravaged; alone now with Grendel
I shall manage the matter, with the monster of evil,
The giant, decide it."
