Answer:
It shows how he is actually feeling happy thinking about how to dismember the men. Just the thought of killing these men is enough to give him "exultant thoughts".
Explanation:
The story of Beowulf can't be told without mentioning Grendel, the monster. The lines from the epic narrative show that he is among the sleeping men, most probably sneaking while they were in deep slumber.
When the narrator says
<em>"his thoughts were exultant,
</em>
<em>He minded to sunder, from each of the thanemen
</em>
<em>The life from his body"</em>
the narrator indirectly indicates that Grendel is a monstrous being. No normal being will have those types of thoughts and still be happy. But for Grendel, the mere thought of tearing the men apart, dismembering them, is enough to make him feel "exultant". triumphant, extremely happy. If just thinking can make him that happy, what will the real action make him feel, that's impossible to even comprehend.
