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.

सेतुपुत्र आरब्धनामा ॥ ४,१७.
Setu's son was named Ārabdha.

Ārabdha's son was Gāndhāra; Gāndhāra's son was Dharma; from Dharma came Ghṛta; from Ghṛta, Durdama; and from him, Pracetā.
प्रचेतसः पुत्रः शतधर्मः बहुलानां म्लेछानामुदीच्यानामाधिपत्यमकरोत् ॥ ४,१७.
Pracetā's son was Śatadharma, who ruled over many northern Mleccha peoples.
श्रीपराशर उवाच । पूरोर्जनमेजयस्तस्यापि प्रचिन्वान् प्रचिन्वतः प्रवीरः प्रवीरान्मनस्युर्मनस्योश्चाभयदः तस्यापि सुद्युस्सुद्यो र्बहुगतः तस्यापि संयातिस्संयातेरहंयातिः ततो रौद्रा श्वः

दुष्यंताच्चक्रवर्त्ती भरतोऽभूत्
Duṣyanta became the universal emperor, and his son was Bharata.
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.
भरतस्य पत्नित्रये नव पुत्रा बभूवुः
Bharata had nine sons from his three wives.
नैते ममानुरूपा इत्यभिहितास्तन्मातरः परित्यागभयात्तत्पुत्राञ्जघ्नुः
Their mothers, fearing abandonment after being told, 'These are not suitable for me,' killed those sons.
ततोस्य वितथे पुत्रजन्मनि पुत्रार्थिनो मरुत्सोमयाजिनो दीर्घतमसः पार्ष्ण्यपास्तद्बृहस्पतिवीर्यादुतथ्यपत्न्यां ममतायां समुत्पन्नो भरद्वाजाख्यः पुत्रो मरुद्भिर्दत्तः
Then, when he was unsuccessful in producing a son, the Maruts, performers of the Soma sacrifice, desiring a son for him, gave him a son named Bharadvāja, born from Mamata, the wife of Utathya and daughter of Dīrghatamas, by the power of Bṛhaspati.
तस्यापि नामनिर्वचनश्लोकः पठ्यते
A verse explaining the name of that one is recited.
मूढे भर द्वाजमिमं भरद्वाजं बृहस्पते । यातौ यदुक्त्वा पितरौ भरद्वाजस्ततस्त्वयम् इति
"O Bṛhaspati, lift up this burden, this child, Bharadvāja!" Thus, having spoken, the two parents departed; therefore, he is called Bharadvāja.
भरद्वाजस्स तस्य वितथे पुत्रजन्मनि मरुद्भिर्दत्तः ततो वितथसंज्ञामवाप
Bharadvāja, given by the Maruts when a son was not born, thus received the name Vitatha.
वितथस्यापि मन्युः पुत्रोऽभवत्
Vitatha also had a son named Manyu.
बृहत्क्षत्रमहावीर्यनगरगर्गा अभवन्मन्युपुत्राः
