1859 AD (search for this): book 6, commline 43
Aditus and ostia seem rightly
explained by Henry as a sort of Virgilian
hendiadys, aditus per centum lata ostia.
But it is not easy to understand what
these entrances were. On the whole the
consistency of the description seems to require
that we should understand them to
be the entrances of the adytum, opening
into the temple (comp. 3. 92, where the
adytum is opened similarly at the giving
of the response): but a hundred doors
communicating from one side of the temple
to a cavern beyond form a picture which is
not readily grasped. Meanwhile the general
tenor of the narrative is well illustrated
by a graphic description of a worshipper at
Delphi approaching the adytum in the
Oxford Arnold Prize Essay for 1859, by
my friend Mr. Bowen of Balliol College.
I quote it in an Appendix to this book, as
it is too long for a note.
