[Verginius Rufus]

I was in the third grade, I think, when I first encountered that passage in the Bible and had no idea what it meant--the translation I was reading may have had something like "emrods." The Septuagint has hai hedrai, "the seats" (which can be used of a person's posterior).

That’s a little easier to picture, though also none too pleasant.
