It was nice to get six votes, since so many of these translations are good. Even so, it was hard to choose. I will give just one extra vote to my top choice in order to reward more of the others, which I have listed in my order of preference.

J Sexual Dependency (2 votes)
B Human Endeavor (1 vote)
A I am a Man (1 vote)
E The Black Cat (1 vote)
H Ode to Cassandra (1 vote)

I will just say that some of the others were really nicely done, but did not seem equally challenging. I was most impressed by those that demonstrated clever rhyming, clarity, and an accurate reflection of the tone of the original (as far as I could tell what that tone was).
