Vulto is a rare ablative singular form of the noun vultus, "face, expression". Normally this word is treated as a fourth-declension noun, which would make the ablative singular vultu, but some medieval authors use the second-declension form vulto instead. Instances occurring in the online collection "The Latin Library" are vulto austero "with a sour expression" and laeto vulto "with a cheerful expression".
