Jabberwocky poem narration

I am going to record my Dad reading the Jabberwocky poem from 'Alice through the looking glass'. This poem and all of the Alice in Wonderland content is in public domain. We are going to record it with my Dad's music equipment so the recording will be very clear and can be altered on 'Clean' if is doesn't quite sound right.
The Jabberwocky:
Twas brilling, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the burogroves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"
He took his vorpal sword in hand
Long time the maxome foe he sought --
So rested he by the tum tum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.
And as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!
One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and witg its head
He went galumphing back.
And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabious day! Callooh! Callay!
He chortled in his joy.
Twas brilling, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were thr burogroves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
