The person above me is right, it is a Hyperbole. An Exaggeration of figurative speech. Here’s what to look for when you’re trying to identify what type of figurative speech is in a certain poem or passage. A simile used “like” or “as”. A metaphor uses “is” and “a”. A Hyperbole uses exaggerated sentences expressing how hungry someone is or how angry another person could be. It’s generally used in our language today because most of the youth is dramatic.

Expressions such as "gold-hall" (line 1253), "hell-bride" (line 1259), and "death-den" (line 1276) are examples of: Kennings.

Kennings are compound words often used in Anglo-Saxon literature where two words are combined to generate a figurative meaning.

Often, the compounds words are milder forms of the original noun that should have been used.

So, the compound words above are examples of Kennings.
