शुष्कौ both dried, ओष्ठौ lips, परिलिहन् while licking, अनिमिषैरिव as though without winking, नेत्रैः eyes, मृतभूत इव like a dead person, आर्तस्तु distressed one, रावणम् Ravana, समुदैक्षत looked at Ravana.

Licking his dried up lips, as though his eyes stopped winking like those of the dead, Maricha stared at Ravana, distressed.
