upayeme punaścaināmananyāṃ bhagavān bhavaḥ /
devau dhātāvidhātārau bhṛgoḥ khyātirasūyata //
Such was Rudra himself. He found Satī for his wife[4]; and through Dakṣa’s curse Satī quitted her body. She was the daughter of Himavat by Menā, O brāhman; her brother was Maināka, the chiefest friend of Ambhodhi (the Ocean.) And the lord Bhava married her again as his only wife.
Khyāti the wife of Bhṛgu[5] gave birth to the two gods Dhātṛ and Vidhātṛ, and to Śrī who was the wife of the supreme god Nārāyaṇa. Āyati and Niyati were the two daughters of high-souled Meru; they became the wives of Dhātṛ and Vidhātṛ. A son was born from each of them, both Prāṇa and Mṛkaṇḍa.
