tato marudbhirānīya putraḥ sa tu bṛhaspateḥ
saṃkrāmito bharadvājo marudbhirbharatasya tu //
Thus Bharata was born of Śakuntalâ and Duṣyanta. In ancient times, when all the sons of Bharata perished, through a widespread and virulent epidemic, brought on by the wrath of the Goddess Mâtrikâ [? smallpox], then the Marut Devas brought Bharadvâja, the son of Bṛihaspati, and gave him to Bharata.—14-15.
