Kavya (poetry)
: archive.org: Naisadhacarita of Sriharsa顿惫颈箩补谤腻箩补 (啶︵啶掂た啶溹ぐ啶距) refers to the 鈥渕oon鈥�, and is mentioned in the Nai峁dha-carita 4.72-73.鈥擜ccordingly, 鈥渇or the use of the god of death, the moon was carefully made with all its digits serving as teeth, as a device for crushing maidens separated from their lovers: it is why the moon is known as 顿惫颈箩补谤腻箩补. The moon is the burning face of Cupid, which the Creator pulled out of the fire issuing from 艢iva鈥檚 eye; after that it was marked with a black spot in the guise of a hare, owing to its manifold sins resulting from the killing of forlorn lovers鈥�.
Note: The word 鈥�诲惫颈箩补谤腻箩补鈥�, an epithet of the moon, meaning 鈥渢he king of the Br膩hma峁嘺s鈥� may be construed also as meaning 鈥渢he king of teeth鈥�.

You do not fit in well in this abode just as a majestic elephant (诲惫颈箩补谤腻箩补) fallen in a deep well does not retain splendour. You can shed splendour if your brilliance is not hidden just as the sun illuminates the world only when it is not hidden by the cloud. [...]鈥�.

[Sanskrit to German]
Sanskrit, also spelled 啶膏啶膏啶曕啶むぎ啷� (蝉补峁僺办峁泃补尘), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
