पर वह स्वीकृत नहीं करती है ॥१६९।। दतोकी बात सनकर जो सब ओरसे कामरूपी प्रचण्ड अग्निकी ज्वालाओंसे व्याप्त था तथा दुःखरूपी सागरमें निमग्न था ऐसा रावण अत्यधिक दुःखी होता हुआ पुनः चिन्तामें पड़ जाता था ॥१७०।। वह कभी लम्बी तथा गरम श्वासोच्छ्वासकी वायुको छोड़ता हुआ शोक करता था तो कभी मुख सूख जानेसे अस्पष्ट अक्षरों द्वारा कुछ गाने लगता था ॥१७१॥
वह कामरूपी तुषारसे जले हुए मुखकमलको बार-बार हिलाता था और कभी क्षणभरके लिए निश्चल बैठकर तथा कुछ सोचकर हंसने लगता था ॥१७२।। वह रत्नखचित फर्शपर लोटता और महादाहसे युक्त समस्त अवयवोंको बार-बार फैलाता था ॥१७३|| फिर उठकर खड़ा हो जाता, कभी शून्य हृदय हो अपने आसनपर जा बैठता, कभी बाहर निकलता और किसी मनुष्यको देखकर फिर लौट जाता ।।१७४|| जिस प्रकार हाथी सब दिशाओंमें जानेवाली संडसे किसीका आस्फालन करता है उसी प्रकार रावण भी निःशंक हो सब दिशाओंमें धूमनेवाले अपने हाथसे कम्पित करता हुआ फर्शको आस्फालन करता था अर्थात् फशंपर घुमा-घुमाकर हाथ पटकता था और उससे फर्शको कम्पित करता था ॥१७५।। वह मनमें आयी हुई सीताका स्मरण करता हुआ अपने पुरुषार्थ, तथा निरपेक्ष भाग्यको उलाहना दनेके लिए प्रवृत्त होता था और उस समय उसके नेत्रोंसे अश्रु निकलने लगते थे ॥१७६।। वह किसीको बुलाता था और समीपवर्ती लोग जब हुकार देते थे तब चुप रह जाता था। तदनन्तर बार-बार क्या है ? क्या है ? इस प्रकार बिना किसी लक्ष्यके बकता रहता था ॥१७७॥ वह कभी मुखको ऊपर कर 'सीता सीता' इस प्रकार बार-बार चिल्लाता था और कभी मुख नीचा कर नखसे पृथिवीको खोदता हुआ चुप बैठा रहता था।।१७८|| वह कभी हाथसे वक्षःस्थलको साफ करता था, कभी भुजाओंके अग्रभा देखता. कभी हंकार छोड़ता, कभी विस्तरपर जा लेटता था ॥१७९|| कभो हृदयपर कमल

In the Padma Purana, she sits silently, not speaking, not moving her body, and does not even look at us, being consumed by great sorrow. ||168|| She does not accept even the most delicious food, like milk and other things, which are fragrant and of many colors. ||169|| Then, Ravana, who was burning with the flames of the fire of Kamadeva, and who was immersed in the ocean of sorrow, thought deeply. ||170|| He would sometimes grieve, letting out long, hot breaths, and sometimes, with his mouth dry, he would sing some unintelligible words. ||171|| He would repeatedly shake his lotus-like face, which was scorched by the frost of Kamadeva, and sometimes, he would sit still for a moment, thinking about something and laughing. ||172|| He would roll on the floor, which was studded with jewels, and repeatedly stretch out all his limbs, which were consumed by the great fire of attachment. ||173|| Then, he would stand up, empty of heart, and sit on his seat. Sometimes, he would go out, and seeing someone, he would return. ||174|| Like an elephant with its trunk, which can go in all directions, he would, without fear, strike the floor with his hand, making it tremble. ||175|| Remembering Sita, who had come into his mind, he would blame his own strength and his destiny, which had been unkind to him, and tears would flow from his eyes. ||176|| He would call out to someone, and when the people nearby would shout back, he would remain silent. Then, he would repeatedly speak without any purpose, saying, "What is it? What is it?" ||177|| Sometimes, he would raise his face and shout, "Sita, Sita," repeatedly, and sometimes, he would lower his face and scratch the earth with his nails, sitting silently. ||178|| Sometimes, he would clean his chest with his hand, sometimes he would look at the tips of his arms, sometimes he would let out a roar, and sometimes he would lie down on his bed. ||179|| Sometimes, he would place a lotus on his heart, and sometimes, he would throw it away. He would repeatedly recite love poems and look at the sky. ||180|| How can this be accepted? ||167||
