Pg. 52
“The king answer….will now be called after the sword Golden
Hilt.”
King Hrolf was noted by Svip as being generous and
trustworthy and particular about his friends in Chapter 15. This chapter proves that he has these traits
by knowing the value of Bodvar, and how he was able to change Hott from being a
bullied man into a champion even though he knows that Bodvar killed the beast
and not Hott.
Pg. 65
“Bovar said, The hawk is behaving as if….hawks had been
killed.”
This is a parallel to the battle that Hrof is currently fighting in. Hrof’s hawk
killed all of King Adil’s hawks, and King Hrolf’s men won the battle against
King Adil’s men.
Pg. 66
“King Hrolf said…. Because you will be tested again.” The theme of fame and
leaving a legacy was important as Queen Yrsa states that you have won much fame
here. She got even with King Adils for killing her father/husband by giving
their son great wealth and helping him against her current husband. Her
prophecy also came true that King Adils chances of success would be very good.
Outstanding discussion of parallelism on page 65! Nice insight. These are very good entries.
