चंद्रस्य शापमोक्षार्थं जाता चंद्रनदी तदा।। सृष्टा धात्रा तदैवात्र मेधातिथिरुपस्थितः।।५९।।

sanskrit

For the removal of Chandra’s curse, the Candranadī (Moon River) came into being at that time. It was created by Dhātrā (the Creator, i.e., Brahmā), and at that very moment, Medhātithi also appeared there.
