A paraphrase of Beowulf (starting around line 1383).
Beowulf said “We must mourn our friends later; they have died, but we have not yet avenged them. While we live, we win whatever victories we can; so now let us hunt the monster, whether its trail lead through the middle of the earth or the bottom of the sea.â€
The monster is hiding, but heroes are hunting it.

May the spirit of Beowulf be with them as they hunt.
