satyāstathānye sudhiyaḥ surūpā harayastathā /
ete devagaṇāstatra saptaviṃśatikā mune //

The Satyas and next the Sudhīs, the Surūpas, and the Haris, these were the classes of gods therein, seven and twenty in number, O muni. And Śikhi Indra, mighty, great in valour, distinguished by a hundred sacrifices, became the lord of those gods. Jyotirdhāman, Pṛthu, Kāvya, Caitra, Agni, and Valaka, and also Pīvara, these seven, were the seven ṛṣis, O brāhman. And Nara, Kṣānti, and Śānta, Dānta, Jānu, Jaṅgha and others were Tāmasa’s sons, very mighty kings.
