Answer 2

The answer has been given below.

Explanation:

• Beowulf is an epic narrative that tells the heroic deeds of Beowulf.
• He helped save the Danes and Geats from the monster Grendel and his mother.
• And in the later years, he fought a dragon and killed him, which also led to his own death.
• Chapter 36 of the epic shows him dying by the side of Wiglaf, telling him to lead his people to greatness.
• His last words were "Thou art end and remnant of all our race  the Waegmunding name. For Wyrd hath swept them, all my line, to the land of doom, earls in their glory: I after them go."
• The best summary of his last words is that he commented on the greatness of his people, and that he must also go.
• Since we are human after all, death is inevitable. Like his forefathers, he must also leave the earth. He told Wiglaf to lead the people after he is gone.
• Thus, the correct answer is option 2.
