[8, 65], verbenasque adole pinguis et mascula tura. Adolere, augere, honorare, propitiare; et est verbum sacratum, ut macte, magis aucte.” etc.; so Serv. ad Verg. A. 1, 704: “Flammis adolere penates, i. e. colere, sed adolere est proprie augere. In sacris autem, kat euphêmismon, adolere per bonum omen dicitur, nam in aris non adolentur aliqua, sed cremantur,”) and ad E. 8, 65: “Adole: incende, sed kat euphêmismon dicitur;
