   It never was made available freely. Roughly you have three legal options   
      
   - use one of the older Turbo Pascals (4, 5.5) that are free. (google)   
   - buy BP7 from some vendor like http://www.emsps.com/oldtools/borpas.htm   
   - Use a clone like Free Pascal; http://www.freepascal.org   
      
   The latter choice will force you to fix your code though (mostly 16-bitism),   
   but has the advantage that it also compiles for non-dos targets.
