I believe it implies that King Shield Sheafson, was a good king for the Spear Danes, both being fierce and heroic caused them to be victorious in battles. The opposing tribes viewed Sheafson as evil and a destroyer of their homes. Basically to the Danes, Sheafson is a vision of what is good, to other tribes he is a vision of what is evil.

How does the enjambment in this excerpt affect how you read the poem ?
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

Explanation: the use of enjambment forces the reader to keep reading each subsequent line, since the meaning of one line can only be found by reading the next. By doing this multiple meaning can be expressed without confusion, and in a way which furthers the natural rhythm of the poem.
