Bull-man: The Ratirahasya depicts this man thus-
"He is a Bull-man, whose head is broad and elevated,
whose forehead is broad, who has fat neck, whose ears
are strong, whose stomach is like the shape of a tortise,
who is stout, whose shoulders are high and long, whose
hands and stomach are red, whose eyes are like the petals
of red lotus, who is virtious, whose walking style is
like that of a lovely lion, who speaks gently, who
bears troubles, who is liberal, who sleeps more, who
has no shame, whose digestive power is strong, who is
phlegmatic, who has happiness in his middle and old age,
whose body contains more marrow and fat with salts, who
is liked by all women and whose sex-organ is nine angulas
in length. "48
