F.W. Bain was a writer of fantasy stories, and he claimed to have translated some of them from Sanskrit, the old Indian script. Though it became gradually clearer over time that he was not actually translating anything, the fantasy stories were good enough on their own merits that people still read and enjoy his works.

Excerpt from A Digit of the Moon: A Hindoo Love Story, Translated From the Original Ms. But in Sanskrit, the Moon, like the Sun, is a male. Hindoo poets get over this difficulty, when they want a female Moon, by personifying his attributes, or making a part do duty for the whole. Thus, his disc is divided into sixteen parts, called 'streaks' or 'digits, ' and a beautiful woman is 'a digit of the moon.'
