In Beowulf, how do the Danes feel about Beowulf after his battle with Grendel?

As you can imagine, the Danes are thrilled. Crowds gather to view the battle scene and look at Grendel's bloody path. Hrothgar offers Beowulf any reward he wants. The Danes hold a huge celebration feast where they give Beowulf many valuable gifts. Unfortunately, they don't realize that Grendel has a mother who is still living and now is furious at both the Danes and Beowulf for killing her son.
