Or read the original (well, a translation from Old English really) at:
http://english-server.hss.cmu.edu/poetry/beowulf.html
And by the way - the name Beowulf comes from "beow" and "ulf"
(bear-hand, or bear-grasp, desciptive of the hero's terrible strength
that puts fear even in the hideous monster Grendel), so it really
shouldn't be spelled Beowolf* - and the BiCapitalization is certainly
wrong!
Okay, I'll stop now :-)
