M N Dutt

Sītā, who was protected there (by Saramā), had been made a friend by her. And, protecting her at the command of Rāvana, that kind-hearted companion, firm in vows, saw Sītā, deprived of her consciousness. And she' comforted with a friend's affection that one of fair vows, who was rolling in the dust and rising up from it like a mare. १. Saramă. २. The commentator intelligently remarks. As a mare does, to remove fatigue.

Summary

Most compassionate Saarana, determined to protect was friendly with Sita while she was ordered for protecting her by Ravana.
