nāgadvīpas tathā sāmyo gandharvastvatha cāruṇaḥ /
ayaṃ tu navamastaṣāṃ dvīpaḥ sāgārasaṃvṛtaḥ //
The Varsha of Bhárata is divided into nine portions, which I will name to you; they are Indra-dwípa, Kaserumat, Támravarńa, Gabhastimat, Nága-dwípa, Saumya, Gandharba, and Váruńa; the last or ninth Dwípa is surrounded by the ocean, and is a thousand Yojanas from north to south.
