2.36

nṛtyena, yathā-
sveda-kledita-kaṅkaṇāṃ bhuja-latāṃ kṛtvā mṛdaṅgāśrayāṃ
ceṭī-hasta-samarpitaika-caraṇā mañjīra-sandhitsayā |
sā bhūyaḥ stana-kampa-sūcita-rayaṃ niḥśvāsam āmuñcatī
raṅga-sthānam anaṅga-sātkṛtavatī tālāvadhau tasthuṣī ||

From dancing, as in:
"Leaning her creeper-like arm, its bracelets moist with sweat, upon the mṛdaṅga,
placing one foot in the hand of her maidservant in her desire to adjust her anklet,
she, heaving again a deep sigh whose swiftness was indicated by the heaving of her breasts,
surrendered the stage to the God of Love as she paused at the end of the rhythmic beat."
