अभूतेनापवादेन कीर्तिं निपतितामिव । आम्नायानामयोगेन विद्यां प्रशिथिलामिव ॥ ५-१९-११

She resembled reputation besmirched by scandals, like Vedic studies slackened by lack of aplication. (Knowledge is verified with a suitable statment of the Veda which is the ultimate test of ones finding. This method is adopted in all Astika sastras which accept the authority of the Veda). ॥ 5-19-11॥

सन्नामिव महाकीर्तिं श्रद्धामिव विमानिताम् । पूजामिव परिक्षीणामाशां प्रतिहतामिव ॥ ५-१९-१२

She was like great fame grown dim, faith slighted, worship meddled and hope frustrated. (Note: Sita's condition is being compared with abstract concepts such as fame, faith, reverence and hope which are hit by reverses in fate. She was the personification of all such suffering.) ॥ 5-19-12॥
