Horace, Odes III. 19. Does it Contain ‘A Gap in Time’?
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 05 January 2009
Extract
Admirers of Horace's Odes have cause to be grateful to Professor Gordon Williams for his recent edition of Book iii, with its illuminating and fascinating introduction and commentaries on individual odes. It is arguable, however, that he has misinterpreted iii. 19, ‘Quantum distet ab Inacho’.

page 188 note 3 Presumably for mixing with the wine. ‘Quis aquam temperet ignibus’ has also been taken as referring to the actual mixing of the wine and water, ignis standing for ‘wine’. According to some, the sentence refers, strangely, to the heating of water for baths.
