Plouton

Where it comes from

Learned borrowing from Ancient Greek Πλούτων (Ploútōn). Doublet of Pluto.

proper noun

Synonym of Pluto (“the Greco-Roman god of the underworld”). But were the tongue and tune of Orpheus mine, / So that to Koré crying, or her lord, / In hymns, from Hades I might rescue thee— / Down would I go, and neither Plouton’s dog / Nor Charon, he whose oar sends souls across, / Should stay me till again I made thee stand / Living, within the light!
