Thanks to Mike, Steve and Kaila for their replies.
The replies show that we need to maintain centrally links to such
available, big XML-ized text corpora -- The Bible, Shakespeare's
works, etc.
For example, years ago I used to access Hamlet at
http://www.stoa.org/bard/
but this link is nonexistent now.
Probably Dave Pawson could include a section with relevant links to
big XMLized text corpora in his excellent XSLT FAQ?
Cheers,
Dimitre

Any preference as to language or particular translation? Most are
under copyright, so would have to be licensed. Should be a kjv
floating around. I have a ton on my disks, but I can't give them out.
Some samples are at http://www.bibletechnologies.net/osistext/, and
some complete texts at
http://www.bibletechnologies.net/osistext/crosswiretexts.dsp, but I
suspect the markup in the latter is kind of minimal. May be enough
for what you need, or you could improve it and return the result so
everybody benefits. there's probably at least something at the UVA
text center.
You could ask Mike Perez at the Amer. Bible Soc, who may be able to
supply something, depending on what you need, what the use is, etc.
etc. MPerez(_at_)americanbible(_dot_)org
You also *should* write to several suppliers of electronic Bible
stuff, to add that much more pressure on them to move to XML (and
particularly the OSIS schema, see BTG page referenced below).
