The Great Epic of the Bhārata dynasty 1.62.2

1.62.2

imaṃ tu bhūya icchāmi kurūṇāṃ vaṃśamāditaḥ |
kathyamānaṃ tvayā vipra viprarṣigaṇasaṃnidhau || 2 ||

"Janamejaya said, 'O Brahmana, I have, indeed, heard from thee this account of the incarnation, according to their portions, of the gods, the Danavas, the Rakshasas, and also of the Gandharvas and the Apsaras. I however, again desire to hear of the dynasty of the Kurus from the very beginning. Therefore, O Brahmana, speak of this in the presence of all these regenerate Rishis.'
