TRANSLATION
My dear Vidura, the population of the universe was thus increased by
the descendants of these sages. Actually all of them were born of the
daughters of Kardama. Anyone who hears the descriptions of this dynasty
with faith will be relieved from all sinful reactions. Another daughter of
Manu, known as Prasiti, married the son of Brahma named Daksa.
