Mīnōs sorte audītā coepit mōnstrum ā suīs quaerere; cui dīxērunt nātum esse uītulum quī ter in diē colōrem mūtāret per quaternās hōrās, prīmum album, secundō rubeum, deinde nigrum. Minos autem ad mōnstrum solvendum augurēs convocāvit, quī cum nōn invenīrentur, Polyīdus Coeranī fīlius Bizantī mōnstrum dēmōnstrāvit, eum arborī mōrō similem esse; nam prīmum album est, deinde rubrum, cum permātūrāvit nigrum. (Minos, having heard the oracle, began to seek a monster from among his people; they said that to them had been born a calf that would change its color three times a day every four hours, first white, second red, then black. So Minos called the augurs together to deal with the monster; when they were not found, Polyidus, son of Coeranus of Byzantium, pointed out that the monster was similar to the blackberry tree, for it is first white, then red, and when it has entirely ripened, black.) [(Can we date this quote?), Gaius Julius Hyginus, “Polyidus”, in Fabulae:]

Admissārius tamen asinus sit huiusmodī, corpore amplō, solidō, mūsculōsō, strictīs et fortibus membrīs, nigrī vel mūrīnī maximē colōris aut rubeī: quī tamen, sī discolōrēs pilōs in palpebrīs aut auribus geret, colōrem subolis plērumque variābit. (But a stud donkey should be of this kind: with a large, firm, muscular body, tight and strong limbs, of a black, or at most mouse-like or red, color; but if it has different-colored hairs on its eyelids or ears, then it will mostly make its offspring's color different.) [c. 400, Rutilius Taurus Aemilianus Palladius, Opus Agriculturae, book 4 (Mensis Martius), chapter 14 (De mulis et asinis), line 3:]
