It is, in fact, Longfellow. It's the poem Evangeline, rather remarkable in that its meter is dactylic hexameter, a common meter in Greek and Latin (both the Iliad and the Aeneid are in dactylic hexameter), but very unusual for English, where the natural rhythm of the language tends toward an iambic meter. (Most of Shakespeare's stuff, for instance, is in iambic pentameter.) Have at it, bfh! George

Darn! I didn't think it would be that easy! For anyone who didn't see how Dooj got it... MARY Elizabeth Mastrontonio Joyce DEWITT JILL St. John DRAIN Take it away, Dooj! George

Here's more of MY kind of nostalgia. How many of these starlets can you name? George

"Twisted Love"? George

If that's the Mary of "Peter, Paul and" fame, you're right. I think John Denver did it, too. George

JUAN Valdez TREE Benny HILL "One Tree Hill" George

You got it, b! (May I call you "b"?) :) George

The Dave Clark Five had the biggest hit with it. Go ahead, WW. George

That's the way it is with all the games, WW... I hope she’ll be a fool—that’s the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool. If personality is an unbroken series of successful gestures, then there was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life,…[he had] …an extraordinary gift for hope, a romantic readiness such as I have never found in any other person and which it is not likely I shall ever find again. George

That's it. George

A bit more obvious. "A Cask of Amontillado" by Edgar Allan Poe George

"If you can't tell me what it is, let's use reverse logic -- Perhaps it'll help if you tell me what it isn't." "It is not liquid, gaseous, or solid, despite the fact we cannot see through it." "So far that's not much help." "We're wasting time. The shuttlecraft is ready." "You're determined not to let me share in this, aren't you?" "This is not a competition. Whether you understand it or not, grant me my own kind of dignity." George

"Eleanor" by the Turtles? George

War Games Matthew Broderick Glory George

The "Don't call me Benjamin" line implies someone with the Dax symbiont. Is this "Invasive Procedures" where John Glover (long before his Lionel Luthor days) is a Trill who has the Dax synbiont placed in him? Sisko convinces his confederates that now that he has the Dax symbiont, he'll betray them all and gets his girlfriend to help get the symbiot back to Jadzia. George
