“And Satyaki and Kritavarma, conversant with (the use of) weapons possessed of mighty energy, well-versed in all branches of knowledge, and obedient to Narayana in everything and competent in the use of weapons, had their births from Satyaka and Hridika.  And the seed of the great Rishi Bharadwaja of severe penances, kept in a pot, began to develop.  And from that seed came Drona (the pot-born).  And from the seed of Gautama, fallen upon a clump of reeds, were born two that were twins, the mother of Aswatthaman (called Kripi), and Kripa of great strength.  Then was born Dhrishtadyumna, of the splendour of Agni himself, from the sacrificial fire.  And the mighty hero was born with bow in hand for the destruction of Drona.  And from the sacrificial altar was born Krishna (Draupadi) resplendent and handsome, of bright features and excellent beauty.  Then was born the disciple of Prahlada, viz., Nagnajit, and also Suvala.  And from Suvala was born a son, Sakuni, who from the curse of the gods became the slayer of creatures and the foe of virtue.  And unto him was also born a daughter (Gandhari), the mother of Duryodhana.  And both were well-versed in the arts of acquiring worldly profits.  And from Krishna was born, in the soil of Vichitravirya, Dhritarashtra, the lord of men, and Pandu of great strength.  And from Dwaipayana also born, in the Sudra caste, the wise and intelligent Vidura, conversant with both religion and profit, and free from all sins.  And unto Pandu by his two wives were born five sons like the celestials.  The eldest of them was Yudhishthira.  And Yudhishthira was born (of the seed) of Dharma (Yama, the god of justice); and Bhima of the wolf’s stomach was born of Marut (the god of wind), and Dhananjaya, blessed with good fortune and the first of all wielders of weapons, was born of Indra; and Nakula and Sahadeva, of handsome features and ever engaged in the service of their superiors, were born of the twin Aswins.  And unto the wise Dhritarashtra were born a hundred sons, viz., Duryodhana and others, and another, named Yuyutsu, who was born of a vaisya woman.  And amongst those hundred and one, eleven, viz., Duhsasana, Duhsaha, Durmarshana, Vikarna, Chitrasena, Vivinsati, Jaya, Satyavrata, Purumitra, and Yuyutsu by a Vaisya wife, were all Maharathas (great car-warriors).  And Abhimanyu was born of Subhadra, the sister of Vasudeva through Arjuna, and was, therefore, the grandson of the illustrious Pandu.  And unto the five Pandavas were born five sons by (their common wife) Panchali.  And these princes were all very handsome and conversant with all branches of knowledge.  From Yudhishthira was born Pritivindhya; from Vrikodara, Sutasoma; from Arjuna, Srutakirti; from Nakula, Satanika; and from Sahadeva, Srutasena of great prowess; and Bhima, in the forest begot on Hidimva a son named Ghatotkacha.  And from Drupada was born a daughter Sikhandin who was afterwards transformed into a male child.  Sikhandini was so transformed into a male by Yaksha named Sthuna from the desire of doing her good.
