I’d like a follow-up on this as I’m confused as well. Isn’t 庭 a noun?
EDIT: And this one as well

Ooh it’s always nice to get a reply to a 5-year old post that I remember nothing about. Thanks for reminding me I’ve basically been here forever haha

Also having trouble understanding why ごとき doesn’t work here. ごとし seems straightforward but I’m not really picking up on the difference in nuance between ごとく and ごとき. In sentences like
ウサイン・ボルトの如く走る。
ガンダルフの如き英雄はたんと無い。
The two forms seem like they’re fulfilling the same purpose.Edit: just realized, ごとき modifies a noun (like のような), ごとく adds description (like のように)
