2.11.12

kāśmīra-gaura-vapuṣām abhisārikāṇām
ābaddha-rekham abhitaḥ ruci-mañjarībhiḥ /
etat tamāla-dala-nīla-tamam tamisram
tat-prema-hema-nikaṣa-upalatām tanoti //

For the women going to meet their lovers, their bodies fair as saffron, / casting streaks on every side with the sprays of their luster, / this darkness, black as a tamāla leaf, / performs the work of a touchstone for the gold of their love.
