दूरत्वादृक्षचक्रस्य करालत्वान्महागिरेः ।

The polar circle is called the polar mountain, from the protuberance of the poles at both ends; it is termed also the Lokaloka or having a light and another dark side, owing to the course of the sun towards or away from it. Its distance from the starry circle, derives it also of Zodiacal light.
