19. When a Rook cannot move because of an opponent's Knight,
the Rook cannot be perpetually chased, regardless of whether
the opponent's Knight is protected. (See examples in Diagram
39, 40, and 41)

Explanation:
In Diagrams 39, 40, and 41, the Red Knight is not protected but
because the Black Rook doesn't move, it is not considered as a
perpetual chase. On the contrary, each of the Red moves attacks
the Black Rook and this is a violation of the rule. Red has to
change.
