Write a 100-word internal monologue for Wealhtheow, concluding with her decision to give the speeches she does during the feast. In your monologue, consider: What does Hildeburh’s story make you worried about? What future do you want to avoid? How might the events that are happening in the mead hall at this very moment threaten your sons? Peace between the Danes and the Geats? What might you do or say to prevent future fighting between the Dane’s and the Geats?
