2.132
viyogād, yathā-
papraccha pṛṣṭam api gadgadikārta-kaṇṭhaḥ
śuśrāva noktam api śūnya-manāḥ sa kiñcit |
sasmāra na smṛtam api kṣaṇam ātma-kṛtyaṃ
śrutvāham ity upagato' pi na saṃviveda ||
From separation, as [in this verse]:
He asked again what had already been asked, his throat choked with sobs;
absent-minded, he heard nothing, though it was said;
he did not remember his own duty for a moment, though remembered [before];
hearing ‘I [have come]’, he did not notice even though [the messenger] had arrived.
2.132.p1
(abhinandasya rāma-carite 19.61)
(From the Rāmacarita of Abhinanda, 19.61)
2.132.p2
atra sītā-viraha-janitaṃ rāvaṇasya jāḍyaṃ punaḥ-praśna-śruty-ādibhir avagamyate |
Here, Rāvaṇa's stupor produced by separation from Sītā is understood through the repeated questioning, hearing, and so forth.
