> The dynasty of the Śungas will next become possessed of the sovereignty; for Pushpamitra, the general of the last Maurya prince, will put his master to death, and ascend the throne: his son will be Agnimitra; his son will be Sujyesht́ha; his son will be Vasumitra; his son will be Árdraka; his son will be Pulindaka; his son will be Ghoshavasu; his son will be Vajramitra; his son will be Bhágavata; his son will be Devabhúti. These are the ten Śungas, who will govern the kingdom for a hundred and twelve years.
