(Kosmos, Bd. Iii. S. 309, Anm. 19 ; Engl. Ed. P. Ixxvii. Note 347. ) (^ p. 353. Forbes on the Refraction and Polarisation of Heat, in the Transactions of the lloyal Soc. Of Edinburgh, Vol. Xiii. 1836, p. 131.
( 565 ) p. 354. Lettre de Mr. Melloni u Mr. Arago sur la Puissance calori- fique de la Lumiere de la Lune, in the Comptes rendus, T. Xxii. 1846, p. 541 544. Compare also, for the historical statements, the " Jahresbericht der physikalischen Gesellschaft zu Berlin, " Bd. Ii. S. 272. It has ...always ap- peared to me rather remarkable that, from the earliest times, when warmth was only determined by the feelings, the Moon first gave rise to the idea that light arid warmth might be found separated. Among the Indians, the Moon, re- garded as the King of the Stars, is surnamed in Sanscrit the " cold" ('sitaia, hima) and also the cold-darting or cold-radiating (himan'su) ; while the Sun, with its many rays depicted as hands, is termed the " Creator of Heat" (nidaghakara). The spots on the Moon, in which western nations thought they could make out a face, represent, in the view of the Indians, a roebuck or a hare : hence the Sanscrit names of the Moon " Roe-bearer" (mrigadhara) or " Hare-bearer" (sa'sabhrit).
