Question

Who says the following and why?

Answer 1

Telemachus is politely preparing to tell the guests they have to leave.

Answer 2

Answer: Telemachus is the one who says: "[F]or this evening let us dine and take our pleasure,  no more shouting now. What a fine thing it is to listen to such a bard as we have here  the man sings like a god".

Explanation: In The Odyssey, Telemachus is Odysseus and Penelope's son. Moreover, he is the one who confronts her mother's suitors while Odysseus is far away from home. In that way, he pronounces those words ("[F]or this evening let us dine and take our pleasure,  no more shouting now. What a fine thing it is to listen to such a bard as we have here the man sings like a god") when he is speaking at the suitors, who appear at Odysseus's home to eat all of the food as well as to see Penelope and ask for her hand in marriage.
