SB 10.54.9
hanyamana-balanika
 vrsnibhir jaya-kanksibhih
rajano vimukha jagmur
 jarasandha-purah-sarah

Translation:
Seeing their armies being struck down by the Vrsnis, who were eager for victory, the kings headed by Jarasandha were discouraged and left the battlefield.



SB 10.54.10
sisupalam samabhyetya
 hrta-daram ivaturam
nasta-tvisam gatotsaham
 susyad-vadanam abruvan

Translation:
The kings approached Sisupala, who was disturbed like a man who has lost his wife. His complexion was drained of color, his enthusiasm was gone, and his face appeared dried up. The kings spoke to him as follows.

Purport:
Although Sisupala had not married Rukmini, he passionately considered her his property, and thus he was devastated, like a man who has lost his beloved wife.
