paripūrṇaṃ yathā candraṃ dṛṣṭvā) hṛṣyanti) mānavāḥ | tathā prakṛtayo yasmin sa cāndravratiko nṛpaḥ ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
He is a king, taking upon himself the office of the Moon, whose (appearance) his subjects (greet with as great joy) as men feel on seeing the full moon.
