In plain words

The body cries in fear, speaks, laughs and boasts, and Antarātma—the inner Self—does not release its hold on that body all at once, even in dream or while the body lies in a faint. A body, a young woman, a horse, a tiger, a country: whatever was once experienced is made again in the shapes of its Saṃskāras, supported by Saṃskāra-deha, a subtle body built of impressions.

Close to the Sanskrit

Through this body it weeps in fear, speaks, laughs and boasts. For this reason Antarātma—the inner Self—does not suddenly give up its attachment to the body in dream, even when the body lies unconscious. Whatever was experienced before—body, young woman, horse, tiger, country and the rest—it creates again in the forms of their Saṃskāras, relying on the Saṃskāra-deha, the body made of impressions.
