सा मया राक्षसीमध्ये तय॑माना मुहुर्मुहुः॥ एकवेणीधरा दीना भर्तृचिन्तापरायणा। भूमिशय्या विवर्णाङ्गी पद्मिनीव हिमागमे॥ रावणाद् विनिवृत्तार्था मर्तव्ये कृतनिश्चया। कथंचिन्मृगशावाक्षी तूर्णमासादिता मया॥

English Meaning
I managed too swiftly to present myself before that one, menaced momentarily in the midst of the Raksasi, wearing a single braid of hair; woebegone, ever thinking of her lord; her limbs discoloured by lying down on the ground, like to a lotus on the approach of winter, having eyes resembling those of a young deer, who had turned her face away from all the enjoyments offered by Rāvaņa, and who had resolved to put a period to her existence.
