Jon,

See if this works (but adjust the tenses accordingly):

1. mahaaphaasukapassena -- (lie down) on his side in great comfort
2. uccaarapassaava.m -- defaecating and urinating
3. khe.lakilinna.m -- dripping in sweat (sometimes "drooling")
4. vaataggaha.nena -- holding his breath
5. he.t.thaanaasikasotena -- with the lower nostril
6. uparimanaasikasotena -- with the upper nostril
8. matakaakaara.m -- "make (himself) dead"
9. kaakaara.m dasseti -- looks like (he is) dead

Metta,

Piya
