{candraṃ gatā padmaguṇānna bhuṅkte padmāśritā cāndramasīmabhikhyām /
umāmukhaṃ tu pratipadya lolā dvisaṃśrayāṃ prītimavāpa lakṣmīḥ //294//}
(Kālidāsa's Kumārasaṃbhava 1.43)

"Going to the moon, beauty does not enjoy the qualities of the lotus; resting on the lotus, it does not enjoy lunar splendor; / but reaching the face of Umā, restless splendor achieved joy abiding in both." // 294
