2.15
akāṇḍe yatra huṃkāro dṛṣṭiḥ stabdhā gatā smṛtiḥ
śvāsāḥ samadhikāḥ kārśyaṃ jaḍateyaṃ matā yathā //
dṛṣṭir niścalatārakādhara-dalaṃ śvāsaiḥ kṛtaṃ dhūṣaraṃ prāptaṃ vāsara-candra-bimba-padavīṃ vaktraṃ vinaṣṭā smṛtiḥ
huṃkāraḥ param eka eva vacana-sthāne sthitaḥ sāṃprataṃ manye'syāḥ kusumāyudhaḥ sa-śibiraḥ pratyaṅgam āvāsitaḥ //
Where sudden groaning occurs, the gaze is rigid, memory is gone,
sighs are excessive, and emaciation persists—this is regarded as stupor (jaḍatā), as in:
Her gaze has motionless pupils; the petal of her lower lip is made gray by sighs;
her face has attained the state of the daytime moon; memory is lost;
only a single groan remains now in the place of speech.
I think the flower-weaponed Kāmadeva has pitched his camp with all its tents in her every limb.
