सा हि तत्र कृता मित्रं सीतया रक्ष्यमाणया। रक्षन्ती रावणादिष्टा सानुक्रोशा दृढव्रता॥ सा ददर्श सखी सीतां सरमा नष्टचेतनाम्। उपावृत्त्योत्थितां ध्वस्तां वडवामिव पांसुषु ॥
sā hi tatra kṛtā mitraṃ sītayā rakṣyamāṇayā| rakṣantī rāvaṇādiṣṭā sānukrośā dṛḍhavratā|| sā dadarśa sakhī sītāṃ saramā naṣṭacetanām| upāvṛttyotthitāṃ dhvastāṃ vaḍavāmiva pāṃsuṣu ||
English Meaning
Sītā, who was protected there (by Saramā), had been made a friend by her. And, protecting her at the command of Rāvana, that kind-hearted companion, firm in vows, saw Sītā, deprived of her consciousness. And she' comforted with a friend's affection that one of fair vows, who was rolling in the dust and rising up from it like a mare. 1. Saramă. 2. The commentator intelligently remarks. As a mare does, to remove fatigue.
