Beowulf's first battle was against Grendel. He easily overpowered him, physically and psychologically, and won the fight.


 * "Hygelac's kinsman kept him helplessly locked in a handgrip. As long as either lived, he was hateful to the other. The monster's whole body was in pain, a tremendous wound appeared on his shoulder. Sinews split and the bone-lappings burst. Beowulf was granted the glory of winning," (812-818).**
