Note 111 — Chapter VI · —The “Via Dolorosa” at Jerusalem from the Seventeenth Century to the Present Day

The little work of the pilgrim priest, Heer Bethlem, mentioned above, pp. 77-79, is also cited by Adrichomius amongst his authorities. Bethlem agrees with Pascha in the extraordinary exaggeration of the distance from Simon to Veronica and from Veronica to the Judicial Gate, but while in Pascha the distance from Veronica to the Judicial Gate is almost double that from Simon to Veronica (336 paces to 191 paces) Bethlem makes them almost identical (300 ells to 282 ells). Adrichomius makes no comment, but follows Pascha implicitly.
