kṛtāc cogrāyudho yena prācuryeṇa nīpakṣayaḥ kṛtaḥ ||

The son of Dwimíd́ha was Yavínara; his son was Dhritimat; his son was Satyadhriti; his son was Drid́hanemi; his son was Supárśwa; his son was Sumati; his son was Sannatimat; his son was Krita, to whom Hirańyanábha taught the philosophy of the Yoga, and he compiled twenty-four Sanhitás (or compendia) for the use of the eastern Brahmans, who study the Sáma-veda. The son of Krita was Ugráyudha, by whose prowess the Nípa race of Kshatriyas was destroyed; his son was Kshemya; his son was Suvíra; his son was Nripanjaya; his son was Bahuratha. These were all called Pauravas.
