I believe the lines are:

"<span>Not longer he tarried,
But one night after continued his slaughter
Shameless and shocking,</span><span> shrinking but little</span>
<span>From malice and murder; they mastered him fully."

So, Grendel is not an ordinary human being. In fact, he is not human after all, but a murderous, villainous monster that defies both men's and God's laws. His slaughter is not a monstrous element - after all, people did it too, especially warriors. What illustrates him as a monster are the words "shameless and shocking, shrinking but little from malice and murder". The epic world of "Beowulf" couldn't possibly be shocked by an "ordinary" murder or any act of violence. What makes Grendel's murders shameless shocking is the fact that he doesn't commit them because it needs to be done. He commits them simply because he can, and enjoys greatly in it, even devouring the corpses afterwards.</span>

Lawrence Ferlinghetti's Constantly Risking Absurdity uses phrases like “where Beauty stands and waits” and “her death-defying leap” to show the personification. Thus, options d and e are correct.

<h3>What is personification?</h3>

Personification is the tool of the literary device and the figurative language that is used to show an inanimate object to have the character and expressions of a person.

Personification is used in the poem to show that beauty is compared to a standing person and the death to the leap taken as by the person. Hence, personification is used to give human expressions to a non-living object.

Title: I wish.

She's got long, brown hair

Medium Hight

Dark brown eyes

And the energy of a lightning bolt

Brave in so many ways

Bold with so many actions

Mature in so many ways

Oh, I wish I was her.
