Plū'tus

. [Lat., Gr. Πλοῦτος.] (Gr. & Rom. Myth.) The son of Jason, or Jasus, and Ceres, and god of wealth. He was represented by the Greeks as lame in his approach, but winged in his departure, and as blind and foolish, because his gifts were bestowed without distinction, or upon the most unworthy.
