Mispronunciation and dyssynchronous delivery

Reader, Mike Vendetti, mispronounces the name of Ulysses’ son, Telemachus, as something like “Temelicus” which grates on the ear of the appreciator of Ancient Greek literature. He also seems to be trying to impose his own rhythm on the poem, fighting that which Tennyson himself wrote into the poem.
