Vitatha begot the renowned Bhuvamanyana, who had four famous sons, *viz.*, Bṛihatkṣatra, Mahâvîrya, Nara and Garga. Nara became the father of Saṅkṛiti, who begot Mahâyaśâ, who, through Satkṛitî, had two sons, named Gurudhî and Rantideva. Garga's heir was the learned Śibi, whose sons, known as Śâibyas and Gargâs, were twice-born Kṣatriyas as well as Brâhmaṇas. Urûkṣvata was the worthy son of Âhârya (Mahâvîrya) who begot, through Viśalâ, three sons, named Triyuṣṇa, Puṣkari and Kavi, and they became Brâhmaṇas and were called Urûkṣavas, and these three were the highest Ṛiṣis amongst Kâvyas.—35-40.
