I'm really too ignorant of the subject to comment but I will venture a question. Could this passage be a tongue in cheek allusion, in bad Latin, to the evaporation into the air of spirits of the liquid kind? Could it be a veiled suggestion that the old gal was prone to indulging in 'holy libations' to the point of hallucinating holy visions?
Actually, that was two questions.
