lajjottaro 'dharo lobho dantā jyotsnā smayo bhramaḥ /
romāṇi bhūruhā bhūmno meghāḥ puruṣa-mūrdhajāḥ //

8. Shyness is the upper lip; and covetousness the lower; moonlight forms the teeth; illusion is the smile; the vegetable kingdom forms the hair on the body: and the clouds are the locks on the head of the Perfect Being.

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
