Then, little by little, I understood. I felt laughter welling up

inside me - at the dragon-charm, at Hrothgar's whispering

and trembling by the meadhall door, at everything - the

oblivious trees and sky, the witless moon. I'd meant them

no harm, but they'd attacked me again, as always. They

were crazy. And now at last the grim laughter tame

pouring out, as uncontrollable as the dragon's laugh (79)
