How is beowulf's response to grendel's mother different from his response to grendel?

Between Grendel and Grendel’s mother, Beowulf's battle with Grendl’s mother was more challenging than Grendel. It was harder because Grendel mother won’t be caught off guard by Beowulf strength and she has more experience when it comes to fighting. Grendel was used to humans being weaker than him so seeing Beowulf being able to match his strength, maybe even surpass it, struck fear into Grendel “His fingers crackled; the giant was outward, The earl stepped farther. The famous one minded

To flee away farther, if he found an occasion,And off and away, avoiding delay” If Grendel was more prepared, he might have been able to defeat Beowulf or at least escape with his life.

  Grendel's mother was more of a challenge because she was not only knowledgeable in battle, she was also filled with grief and anger which will make her attack beowulf more aggressively. “His mother moreover Eager and gloomy was anxious to go on

Her mournful mission, mindful of vengeance For the death of her son.” Grendel's mother nearly kills Beowulf after his sword fails.The mother of Grendel; then mighty in struggle

Swung he his enemy, since his anger was kindled,That she fell to the floor. With furious

grapple Beowulf falls.She gave him requital3 early thereafter, And stretched out to grab him; the strongest of warriors Faint-mooded stumbled, till he fell in his traces,The monster sits on him with a drawn sword. Foot-going champion. Then she sat on the hall-guest And wielded her war-knife wide-bladed, flashing,For her son would take vengeance, her one only bairn.”  Thanks to Beowulf armor, Beowulf takes the giant sword and thrust it in Grendel mother’s neck.
