Reference for Bekhorot 7:4
עֵינָיו גְּדוֹלוֹת כְּשֶׁל עֵגֶל, אוֹ קְטַנּוֹת כְּשֶׁל אַוָּז, גּוּפוֹ גָּדוֹל מֵאֵבָרָיו אוֹ קָטָן מֵאֵבָרָיו, חָטְמוֹ גָּדוֹל מֵאֵבָרָיו אוֹ קָטָן מֵאֵבָרָיו, הַצִּמֵּם, וְהַצִּמֵּעַ. אֵיזֶה הוּא צִמֵּעַ, שֶׁאָזְנָיו קְטַנּוֹת. וְהַצִּמֵּם, שֶׁאָזְנָיו דּוֹמוֹת לִסְפוֹג:
If his eyes were as big as [those] of a calf or as small as [those] of a goose, if his body is larger than [i.e., large in relation to the size of] his limbs or smaller than his limbs, or if his nose is bigger than his limbs or if it is smaller, the <i>tsimem</i> and the <i>tsime'a</i>. Who is a <i>tsime'a</i>? One whose ears are small. And a <i>tsimem</i>? One whose ears look [wrinkled] like sponges.
