Does anyone know the source of the following lines?

He only can behold/ With unaffrighted eyes/The horrors of the deep/
And terrors of the skies.

Subject: DIMDI

There seem to be some interesting German-language databases, mostly in
science areas, available through DIMDI (Deutsche Institut f"ur Medischine
Datenbasisen? und Information?) which is located somewhere in K"oln.

They don't seem to want to have on-line searches, except through Tymnet,
and to have no discernible computer address.

Has anyone used these databases or have any information about how to
access them?

Subject: E-text of the Koran?

I am posting this on behalf of a friend who does not (yet) have
direct access to EARN:

I am looking for an electronic text of the entire Koran in
the original Arabic as well as any supplementary
materials which can be used in Arabic language Islamic
studies.

Please send any replies directly to me and I will compile them
and give a general report later.

Subject: Semantic Domain Dictionary on the Hebrew OT

I was reading in article by E. A. Nida about a proposed semantic
domain dictionary on the Hebrew Old Testament. The work is to
be done by the Institute for Interlingual Communication of the
South African Bible Society. It will supposedly be similar to
the Greek New Testament semantic domain dictionary by Nida and
Louw. Is the project in process? Will it become a reality?
What is its estimated publication date?
