Reread lines 85–103, which describe how Hrothgar's followers prayed for protection from Grendel's attacks. Are these Christian ideas fully integrated into the epic? Explain why or why not. Support your response with evidence from the text.

Christian ideas are definitely not fully integrated into the epic because this poem is primarily and epic, heroic poem at a time where most people were still pagan. If you reread lines 85-103, you will see that Hrothgar's followers do pray for protection from Grendel, but in the latter part of the poem it is mentioned that they prayed to their pagan gods as well.

E.g.

At the shrines of their idols often they promised

Gifts and offerings

In Christianity, God isn't referred to as idol - as a matter of fact, the Bible itself says that no being should be idolized. Therefore, there are definitely some instances of Christian ideas in this poem, but ultimately, it is predominantly a pagan religion written in Beowulf.

make sure the topic of your persuasive essay is not something someone else is writing about.

faulty parallelism is a grammar construction where there is no balance in the parts of a sentence they have a similar meaning but the grammar structure is not equivalent.

the correct version of this faulty parallelism in the sentence is:

jefferson wrote the declaration of independence, and he was the nation's third president.

the problem with the first version is that the sentence:

"jefferson was both the writer of the declaration of independence"

presents jefferson as both a subject and an agent for the verb "write" because if he was "the writer" then the declaration of independence was written by him, besides that fact, the sentence presents a dependent clause.

while the second sentence:

he was the nation's third president.

presents a basic subject+verb+object structure

so, to give a proper balance to the structure, or better said, to give a parallel structure, we must write a basic s+v+o structure in both sentences:

jefferson wrote the declaration of independence, and he was the nation third president.
