In this way, the number of sons in the Yadu lineage, counted in hundreds and thousands, is so great that it cannot be told even in a hundred years.

Therefore, these verses here have fulfilled their purpose.
तिस्त्रः कोट्यःसहस्राणामष्टाशीति शतानि च । कुमाराणां कृहाचार्याश्चापयोगेषु ये रताः ॥ ४,१५.
There were three crore and eighty-eight thousand princes and household teachers who were devoted to the use of weapons.

Who can enumerate the Yadavas, those great souls, among whom tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands always dwelled?
देवासुरे हता ये तु दैतेयास्सुमहाबला:। उत्पन्नास्ते मनुष्येषु जनोपद्रवकारिण:।।४,१५,
Those Daityas of great might, who were slain among the gods and demons, were born among humans as disturbers of the people.
तेषामुत्सादनार्थाय भुविदेवा यदो:कुले। अवतीर्णा:कुलशतं यत्रैकाभ्यधिकं द्विज:॥ ४,१५,
For the destruction of these, the gods on earth descended into the Yadu lineage, where there were a hundred clans, one more than a hundred, O twice-born.
उत्पन्नास्ते मनुष्येषु प्रमाणे च प्रभुत्वे च व्यवस्थितः। निदेशस्थायिनस्तस्य ववृधुः सर्वयादवाः ॥ ४,१५.
They were born among humans, established in measure and power; all the Yadavas flourished, abiding by his command.
इति प्रसूतिं वृष्णीनां यश्र्शृणोति नरः सदा । स सर्वैः पातकैर्मुक्तो विष्णुलोकं प्रपद्यते ॥ ४,१५.
Whoever always hears this account of the birth of the Vrishnis is freed from all sins and attains the world of Vishnu.
पराशर उवाच । इत्येष समासतस्ते कथितः, तूर्व्वसोर्वशमवधारय ।। ४-१६-
Parashara said: Thus, this summary has been told to you; now understand the lineage of Turvasa.
तुर्व्वसोर्वह्रिरात्मजः, वह्रर्गोभानुः त्रैशाम्बः, तस्माज्व करन्धमः, तस्मादपि ततश्व मरुत्तः, सोऽनपत्योऽभवत् । ततश्व पौरवं दुष्मन्त पुत्रमकल्पयत् । एवं ययातिशापात् तद्वंशः पौरवं वंशमाश्रितवान् ।। ४-१६-
Turvasa's son was Vahni; Vahni's son was Gobhanu, whose son was Traishamba; from him came Karandhama, and from him, Marutta. He was without offspring; therefore, he appointed Dushmanta, the son of Paurava, in his place. Thus, by the curse of Yayati, that lineage was merged into the Paurava line.

दुष्यंताच्चक्रवर्त्ती भरतोऽभूत्

यन्नामहेतुर्देवैश्श्लोको गीयते
Because of him, a verse is sung by the gods.
माता भस्त्र पितुः पुत्रो येन जातः स एव सः । भरस्व पुत्रं दुष्यंतमावमंस्थाश्शकुंतलाम्
Mother is the bellows, father the begetter; the son born from him is indeed his own. 'Accept your son Duṣyanta; do not disregard Śakuntalā.'
रेतोधाः पुत्रो नयति नरदेव यमक्षयात् । त्वं चास्य धाता गर्भस्य सत्यमाह शकुंतला
The son born of a man's seed leads the king from Yama's abode; and you are the creator of this embryo—Śakuntalā spoke the truth.
