Proper noun
Marius
A male given name from Latin.

And here Bartleby makes his home, sole spectator of a solitude which he has seen all populous- a sort of innocent and transformed Marius brooding among the ruins of Carthage! Herman Melville
Men respect the silent; they despise the garrulous. - Marius. Conn Iggulden
