You just motivated me to get out my Longfellow and read.

I even remember some by heart:

This is the forest primeval
The murmuring pines and the hemlocks

Not bad, huh? I read Evangeline in gradeschool, probably about fifty years ago.

THIS is the forest primeval. The murmuring pines and the hemlocks,
Bearded with moss, and in garments green, indistinct in the twilight,
Stand like Druids of eld, with voices sad and prophetic,
Stand like harpers hoar, with beards that rest on their bosoms.
Loud from its rocky caverns, the deep-voiced neighboring ocean
