Read this passage from page 44 of Grendel, in which Grendel has just heard a blind musician: "I was so filled with sorrow and tenderness I could hardly have found it in my heart to snatch a pig! Thus I fled, ridiculous hairy creature torn apart by poetry-crawling, whimpering, streaming tears, across the world like a two- headed beast, like mixed-up lamb and kid at the tail of a baffled, indifferent ewe--and I gnashed my teeth and clutched the sides of my head as if to heal the split, but I couldn't."

What best explains the type of characterization used in this passage?

A. Direct characterization because the author describes Grendel's physical appearance in a direct manner.

B. Indirect characterization because the author uses Grendel's thoughts to show his feelings about powerful verse.

C. Indirect characterization because the author describes Grendel's physical strength as weaker than human strength.

D. Direct characterization because the author uses figurative language to discuss Grendel's feelings.
