From Cakṣuṣa, a mighty and valiant son named Viṃśa was born. Viṃśa, endowed with great strength, fathered Viviṃśaka, from whom Khaninetra was born. Khaninetra’s lineage continued with Ativibhūti, and from Ativibhūti came Karaṃdhama, a son renowned for his strength and valor. Karaṃdhama’s son was Avikṣit, and Avikṣit too had a son of great might—Marutta. Marutta’s fame was so great that verses are still sung about him. His sacrificial rites on earth were unparalleled; all the objects used in his sacrifices were fashioned from gold and shone with exceptional splendor. Indra himself attended Marutta’s sacrifice as an uninvited guest, the twice-born received soma and generous fees, the Maruts served as attendants, and the gods of heaven participated in the grand assembly. Marutta, the universal emperor, had a son named Nariṣyanta. Nariṣyanta’s son was Dama. Dama’s son was Rājavardhana, and from Rājavardhana came Suvṛddhi. Suvṛddhi’s son was Kevala, and Kevala’s son was Sudhriti. From Sudhriti came Candra, and then Kevala was born again in the lineage. From Kevala, Bandhumat was born, followed by Vegavat, and then Budha. Next came Trinabindu. Trinabindu had a single daughter named Ilavila. The distinguished Apsaras, Alambusa, united with Trinabindu, and from their union, Vishala was born. Vishala built the city of Vishala. Vishala’s son was Hemachandra, and after him came Chandra. Chandra’s son was Dhumraksha, whose son was Srnjaya. Srnjaya’s son was Sahadeva, and Sahadeva’s son was Krishashva. From Krishashva came Somadatta, who performed a hundred Ashvamedha sacrifices. Somadatta’s son was Janamejaya, and Janamejaya’s son was Sumati. These were the kings of Vaiśālī, and a verse is sung in their honor: by the favor of Tṛṇabindu, all the kings of Vaiśālī were long-lived, great-souled, powerful, and exceedingly righteous. Śaryāti had a daughter named Sukanyā, whom Cyavana married. Śaryāti also had a son, Ānarta, who was supremely righteous. Ānarta’s son was Revata, who ruled the land of Ānarta and resided in the city of Kuśasthalī. Revata’s son was Raivata, also called Kakudmin, the eldest among a hundred brothers and righteous in soul.
