Which of the following inferences about Hrothgar is best supported by the following passage (paragraph 1)?


Inspired by winds (or whatever you please), the old man sang of a glorious meadhall whose light would shine to the ends of the ragged world. The thought took seed in Hrothgar’s mind. It grew. He called all his people together and told them his daring scheme. He would build a magnificent meadhall high on a hill, with a view of the western sea, a victory-seat near the giants’ work, old ruined fortress from the world’s first war, to stand forever as a sign of the glory and justice of Hrothgar’s Danes. There he would sit and give treasures out, all wealth but the lives of men and the people’s land. And so his sons would do after him, and his sons’ sons, to the final generation.
