The plight that Hrothgar was facing was that of;
- Having his men eliminated by Grendel. At this point, he had lost a lot of men who dared to challenge Grendel. This can be deduced from his words to Beowulf in these lines;
<em>What grief in Heorot Grendel hath caused me, </em>
<em />
What horror unlooked-for, by hatred unceasing.
Waned is my war-band, wasted my hall-troop;
<em>Weird hath offcast them to the clutches of Grendel.</em>
(Note that the English Language used here is not the contemporary version)
In these lines, Hrothgar laments the horror Grendel had caused in his rulership. He had caused him a lot of grief due to his constant attacks.
He explains to Beowulf that his war band was wasted and waned because of Grendel's consistent grip on them.
This was the expression of the king who was now tired of the acts of Grendel in his kingdom.
