The program of observations of the 30 Doradus and η Carinae nebulae described here had its origin in the general study of Magellanic Cloud nebulae considered in the previous paper. The 30 Doradus nebula is considerably larger and brighter than the other HII regions in the Clouds, and may be treated in greater detail. The η Carinae nebula was chosen as a comparison object in our own Galaxy.
