(7) Śrī Krṣṇa-Satyā. King Nagnajit of Kosala, father of Satyā, had seven oxen like elephants in strength. The King proclaimed that his daughter would be married to the person who would tie down the oxen. Various Kings attempted the task but failed. Ultimately Arjuna and Krṣṇa went to Kosala and Krṣṇa assumed seven forms and tied down the oxen with cords. The seven oxen at once fell down. Krṣṇa took Satyā for his wife.
(8) Śrī Krṣṇa-Kaikeyī (Bhadrā). Krṣṇa married Kaikeyī, the daughter of Śrutakīrti, sister of Krṣṇa's father.
(9) Śrī Krṣṇa-Lakṣmaṇā. Lakṣmaṇā, daughter of King of Madra chose Krṣṇa at her Svayaṃvara and she became Krṣṇa's wife.
(10) Krṣṇa-16000 women. Brahmā had given the boon to the 16000 daughters of Narakāsura in their previous birth that Viṣṇu would marry them in their next birth. While even the Devas were suffering on account of Narakāsura, Śrī Krṣṇa along with Satyabhāmā mounted Garuḍa, went to Prāgjyotiṣa, the kingdom of Narakāsura, defeated him in fight and released his 16000 daughters from captivity. He returned with them to Dvārakā, assumed the guise of 16000 men and married those 16000 girls. He built a palace for each of his 16000 wives. (For details see under Narakāsura).
