A briefer list of eight Vīras, ‘heroes,’ as among the friends of the king, is given in the Pañcavimśa Brāhmaṇa:⁸ brother, son, Purohita, Mahiṣī, Sūta, Grāmaṇī, Kṣattṛ, and Saṃgrahītṛ. - [Previous: v2.c4.s5.63](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.s5.63) - [Next: v2.c4.s5.65](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.s5.65) - [Up: v2.c4.s5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.s5) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.s5.64](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v2.c4.s5.64) · Pramāṇa
