it's not the grove of Carmentis...it's the lucus and fons of the Camenae: in Latin the fons camenarum. put fons camenarum into Google Book Search and you will get "A New Topographical Dictionary of Ancient Rome" by Lawrence Richardson you will see the article on the left..then put in Google Books Camenae Lawrence Richardson and you can read the article.
