Book is xx + 1004 pp. An excerpt, corresponding to ll. 1251-887, from Child's 1904 prose translation, preceded by a brief introduction (p. 147). The excerpt begins:
They sank then to sleep. One paid sorely for his evening's rest, even as full often had befallen them after Grendel took the gold-hall for his own, did what was not right till the end came, death following upon his sins. It became plain, and known far and wide of men, that an avenger still lived even yet after him, the loathly one, for a long time following upon that bitter warfare. Grendel's mother kept thought of her sorrow, a she-one, a monster-wife, that was fated to dwell midst the water's terrors, in the cold streams, after Cain had slain by the sword his only brother, his kin by one father—outlawed he went away then with the mark of murder on him, to flee the joys of men, and dwelt in waste places. (148)
And ends:
Beowulf, gold-proud warrior, trod thence over the grassy earth, rejoicing in his treasure. The sea-goer awaited her master, as she rode at anchor. Oft then, as they went, was the gift of Hrothgar spoken of with praise. That was a king in all things blameless, till old age, that hath scathed many a man, took from him the joys of might. (157)
This 1950 reuse of the Child translation was noted in MO1 (p. 158) but not in the less formal listing of MO2 1904(a).
