teṣāñcaiva pramāṇañca nakṣatrāṇāñca saṃsthitiḥ /  
bhūrādayastathā lokāḥ pātālānyakhilānyapi //

> Krauṣṭuki spoke:  
> Thou hast duly related what thou wast asked, O great muni, namely, the constitution of the earth, ocean, &c., their dimensions, also the planets and their dimensions, and the constitution of the constellations, and the bhūrloka and the other worlds, and all the Lower Regions. And thou hast declared the Svāyambhuva Manvantara to me, O muni. Next I wish to hear about the Manvantaras which succeeded that, the deities who ruled over the Manvantaras, the ṛṣis, and the kings who were their sons.  
> — Frederick Eden Pargiter 1888, The Mārkaṇḍeya Purāṇa
