2.19

Among these, [despair] from non-attainment of the desired object is as in:
"Whichever king that maiden choosing her husband passed by,
like a moving flame of a lamp in the night,
that very ruler of the earth fell into paleness,
like a highway tower [left in darkness]."

2.19.p1

(Raghuvaṃśa 6.67)

2.19.p2

Here, the despair of the kings who longed for Indumatī is expressed through the pallor of their faces, due to failing to obtain her.
