सीताऽऽभरणसंलग्नस्वर्णबिन्दुभिरर्चितम्
सीताऽऽभरणसंलग्नस्वर्णबिन्दुभिरर्चितम्
THIS SHOULD BE EMENDED TO REMOVE THE ऽऽ
सीताभरणसंलग्नस्वर्णबिन्दुभिरर्चितम्
SINCE सीताभरणसंलग्नस्वर्णबिन्दुभिर IS ALL ONE WORD/COMPOUND, MODIFYING शयनस्थलं कुशसमास्तृतम् AT THE END OF THE PRECEDING LINE:
THE BED, STREWN WITH KUSHA GRASS, IS SMEARED (?) [EMEND ==> चर्चितं]
‘with Sītā-ornament-stuck-to-gold-droplets’, I.E.
‘with the gold-dust from Sītā’s jewels’ (transl.)
\
THE QUESTION THEN IS WHETHER TO FURTHER EMEND
arcita अर्चित p. p. Worshipped, respected, honoured; R.1.55; Ms.4.235; स्वर्गौकसामर्चितमर्चयित्वा Ku.1.59.
\
TO
carcita चर्चित p. p. 1 Anointed, smeared, perfumed, scented &c.; चन्दनचर्चितनीलकलेवरपीतवसनवनमाली Gīt.1; Ṛs.2.21. -2 Discussed, considered, investigated. -3 Sought, desired; Repeated in reciting the veda while इति is added. -तम् Anointing, smearing.

HERE WITH ACC. BUT DESPITE THE FOLLOWING USUALLY SEEMS TO BE WITH NOM - ALTHOUGH PERHAPS IN SUCH CASES IT IS A SIMPLE EXPLETIVE

समानतः (?)
ACTUALLY, THERE IS A WAY TO SAVE समानतः HERE = AS THE ERSATZ ABL (तः) FROM समान mfn ‘Same, equivalent’ : ‘on account of her being the equivalent of a pile of sins’ (?)
\
EMEND TO समन्वितः HERE - SEE BELOW
समानतः (?) THERE IS AN ADJ समानत == ‘uniform’ BUT I THINK समानतः HERE IS ERSATZ ABL FROM समान ‘uniform’ - ALTHOUGH THE LATTER CAN MEAN MANY DIFFERENT THINGS (SEE BELOW). I WOULD SOONER HAVE EXPECTED HERE A WORD LIKE सनाथ ‘endowed with’ ALTHOUGH THE METER REQUIRES 4 SYLLABLES.
SO THE ORIGINAL READING MUST HAVE BEEN समन्वित
समन्वित mfn. connected or associated with, completely possessed of, fully endowed with, possessing, full of (instrumental case or compound)
