Note 598 — Chapter V · THE ORIENTATION OF CHURCHES
Reading edition
The circumstances connected with the building of this church are described by H. D. M. Spence (Dean of Gloucester) in Early Christianity and Paganism, 1902, pp. 485-8. The passage quoted occurs in the “Epistulae” of St Paulinus de Nola, Ep. XXXII. (ad Severum), § 13. One edition inserts “id est, tumulum” after “memoriam,” and Gulielmus de Hartel’s edition, 1894, gives “perspectus” as an alternative to “prospectus.”
