He also said that while Beowulf was alive, they had to give him some treasures that they won together in the different wars they went through. Finally Beowulf die and the warrior wiglaf cry over him; all the warriors and the town shows the sadness they feel of losing their king so then they made Beowulf a ceremony of burying and protect him with a dragon.
