Whether the moon is waning or waxing, ^[1]

it is cool when the gale blows.

Since the wind brings the cool,

both are undefeated in this instance.

[1] The story goes that two friends were arguing about whether the cold came in the dark or bright phase of the moon. The Bodhisatta answers that neither is wrong, since the wind brings coolness at any time. The moral of the story would seem to be that even close friends can end up arguing over stupid things.
