And Dakṣa moreover begat twenty and four daughters of Prasūti; hear also from me their names in order—Sraddhā (Faith), Lakṣmī (Good Fortune), Dhṛti (Constancy), Tuṣṭi (Satisfaction), Puṣṭi (Nourishment), Medhā (Mental Vigour), and Kriyā (Action), Buddhi (Intelligence), Lajjā (Modesty), Vapus (Bodily Beauty), Śānti (Tranquillity), Siddhi (Perfection), and Kīrti (Fame) the thirteenth.
