1.441

yathā-
parimlānaṃ pīna-stana-jaghana-saṅgād ubhayatas
tanor madhyasyāntaḥ parimilanam aprāpya haritam |
idaṃ vyasta-nyāsaṃ praśithila-bhujākṣepa-valanaiḥ
kṛśāṅgyāḥ santāpaṃ vadati visinī-patra-śayanam ||

As in:
“Withered on both sides from contact with plump breasts and hips,
remaining green in the middle without touching the slender waist,
disarranged by the tossing and turning of her limp arms,
this bed of lotus leaves speaks of the burning fever of the slender-limbed girl.”

Here, because the qualities of both styles—short compounds and long compounds, lucidity and crisp structure, predominance of non-harsh syllables, separated words and compactness—are arranged as if placed on a scale, this is the mixed style.
