  2. monster (deformed person)
    • 86 CE – 103 CE, Martial, Epigrammata 6.39.15–21:
      [] Hunc vērō acūtō capite et auribus longīs,
      quae sīc moventur ut solent asellōrum,
      quis mōriōnis fīlium negat Cyrtae?
      Duae sorōrēs, illa nigra et haec rūfa,
      Crotī choraulae vīlicīque sunt Carpī.
      Iam Niobidārum grex tibī foret plēnus
      sī spadŏ Corēsus Dindymusque nōn esset.
      This one though with the pointed head and long ears,
      which so move, like those of asses often do,
      who denies that he is the son of Cyrta the monster?
      Two sisters, that one swarthy and this one red-haired,
      are Chrotus' the flute-player' and Carpus' the steward's.
      Now the swarm of children of Niobe were full
      if Coresus and Dindymus weren't eunuchs.
