Then, the monkey (Hanuman), while wandering through that revered city, which was protected by the arms of Daśamukha (Rāvaṇa), reached her (Sītā). He beheld Janaka's daughter (Sītā), who, though highly honored, was deeply distressed and overcome by the powerful virtues of her husband (Rāma).

Then, at that moment, the mind of the great-souled (mahātman) Hanumān - who was disciplined in spirit (kṛtātman), whose inner self was deeply contemplated in various ways, who followed a virtuous path, and who, possessing keen eyesight, was searching everywhere - became exceedingly distressed because he did not see Janaka's daughter (Sītā).
