    Bewulf

    GOOD EVENING TO YOU ALL. IM SORRY FOR BEING AWAY FOR SUCH A ALONG TIME BUT I HAVE BEEN VERY BUSY LATELY. COLLAGE LIFE DOES CONSUME ALL YOUR TIME. HOWEVER I WANTED TO ADD THIS SUBJECT SINCE WEVE BEEN STUDYING IT RECENTLY. BEWULF IS AN EPIC POEM WRITTEN IN THE OLD ENGLISH LANGUAGE. IT WAS THE MOST FAMOUS POEM AT THE OLD ENGLISH PERIOD. THE PLOT OF THE STORY TAKES PALCE IN ON E OF THE ANGELO SAXONS TRIBE VILLAGE. BEWULF IS A CONSIDERABLE YOUNG MAN WHO WANTED TO HELP THE KING OF THE DANES FIGHT A CRUL MONSTER. HE WANTED TO HELP THE KING BECAUSE THE KING PREVIOUSLY HELPED HIS FATHER. SO HE IS KIND OF PAYING HIM BACK. SO BEWULF GOES TO KILL THIS MYTHICAL MONSTER GRINDEL. WHEN HE SUCCESDED THE MONSTERS MOTHER WANTED TO REVENGE THE DEQATH OF HER SON. BEWULF AGAIN VANQUISHED THE MONSTERS MOTHER, AFTER TAHT HGE WENT BACK TO HIS OWN COUNTRY WHERE HE BEACAME KING. AND AFETR SO MANY YEARS THER WAS NEW TROUBLE IN THE REGIN. A DRAGORN WAS AWOKEN BY A THEIF WHO STOLE FROM THE DRAGORN S CAVE. BEWULKF WAS SO BRAVE TAHT HE INSISTED ON VARRYING OUT THE FIGHT ON THE DRAGORN. HIS KNIGHTS ALL FAILD TO PROTECT HIS BACK. ONLY HIS CLOSEST CAUSIN AND FRIEND HELPED HIM ION HIS FIGFHT. THEY BOTH HELPED EACH OTHER TO KILL THE DRAGORN. BEWULF DIED FROM HIS DEEP WOUNDS AND HIS CAUSIN WAS CROWNED KING. THE KNNIGHTS WHO RAN AWAY WERE DOOMED AND THEY WERE CALLED COWARDS. OF COURSE THIS IS A MYTHICAL STORY BASED ON CULTUR OF THE TRIBES OF THE ANGELO SAXONS. TAKE A LOOK AT THE STORY ON LINE AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK OF IT. HAVE FUN.
