⁴ Bd iii, 71, 145–60a. Vā 96, 143–59a. Br 14, 14–24a, 25b f. Hv 35, 1922–34a, 1935b f. Mat 46, 1–10, 23–4. Pad v, 13, 108b–117. These collated show that Devamīḍhuṣa was the father (or ancestor) and Śūra the son (or descendant). So MBh says Śūra was son of Devamīḍha (vii, 144, 6030–1) and father of Vasudeva (ibid.: also i, 67, 2764; 111, 4382). MBh xiii, 147, 6834–5 says Śūra was son (descendant) of Citraratha, referring to his distant ancestor. Kūr i, 24, 67–70 confusedly joins this line on to Hṛdika in the Andhaka line. Cf. Viṣ iv, 14, 8–12; Ag 274, 47b–8; Gar i, 139, 50b–55; Bhāg ix, 24, 27b–44.
