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."

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