Brihat Samhita
शालिइक्षुमत्यपि धरा धरणीधरऽभ धाराधरौज्झितपयःपरिपूर्णवप्रा । श्रीमत्सरोरुहतताम्बुतडागकीर्णा योषाइव भात्यभिनवऽभरणौज्ज्वलाङ्गी ॥ १९-१६ ॥
If Venus should be the lord of the year, rice-crops and sugar-canes will flourish, low grounds will be filled with rain water, tanks will appear beautiful on account of the lotus growing in them; and the Earth will assume an appearance quite as charming as a lady bedecked with jewels.
