The 1st part of each half-verse is sung with the pitch going up [ :-) ] . The 2nd part is rather toned down . Until someone comes up with a good idea on how to convey the pitch. The spacing has been increased at the pauses.(It is possible that each shloka is 12 - - 10 - - -/ 12 - - 10/- - - - ) 2) The last 4 lines are repeated during rAmacharitamAnasa chanting.
