Bandusia

1. (historical) A spring near Venusia, the subject of an ode by the ancient poet Horace.
   • 1935, Samuel Beckett, Watt:

     That he who has the time should lack the force, that she who has the force should lack the time! That a trifling and in all probability tractable obstruction of some endocrinal Bandusia, that a mere matter of forty-five or fifty minutes by the clock, should as effectively as death itself, or as the Hellespont, separate lovers.
