vii. I m1b, fa fk.-This sloka and 145 ab are wanting in A, but they are found in B and m1. a The names of the thirteen daughters of Daksa enumerated in 144 and 145" are the same as those given in Mahabharata i. 2520, with the exception of Varistha and Surabhi, instead of which Pradha and Kapila appear in the epic, where the corresponding passage reads as follows: aditir ditir danuh kala danayuh simhika tatha, krodha pradha ca visva ca vinata kapila munih, kadrus ca. Thus the first line (excepting the last word) is identical in both, while the second and third begin with the same word. The question whether these three lines originally belonged to the text of the Brihaddevata, or were interpolated from the Mahabharata, is of critical importance. Without them the varga would have only three and a half slokas. Cp. Muir, Original Sanskrit Texts, i. 122 and i. 116 f. B 145. and Kadru by name: (these) daughters he (Daksa) gave to Kasyapa.
