सीतायाम् when Sita, प्रधर्षितायाम् was assaulted, सचराचरम् with all beings animate and inanimate, सर्वम् all, जगत् world, अमर्यादम् crossed all moral law, अन्धेन तमसा by pitch darkness, संवृतम् enveloped, बभूव became, तत्र then, मारुतः wind, न वाति did not blow, दिवाकरः the Sun, निष्प्रभः lustreless, अभूत् became.

While Sita was being assaulted, the earth with the animate and the inanimate crossed all limits of moral law and became enveloped in blinding darkness. The wind ceased to blow and the Sun, to shine.
