There have been several powerful princes of this dynasty, of whom the most celebrated was Jar\u00e1sandha; his son was Sahadeva; his son is Som\u00e1pi 1; his son will be \u015arutavat 2; his son will be Ayut\u00e1yus 3; his son will be Niramitra 4; his son will be Sukshatra 5; his son will be Vrihatkarman 6; his son will be Senajit 7; his son will be \u015arutanjaya 8; his son will be Vipra 9; his son will be \u015auchi 10; his son will be Kshemya 11; his son will be Suvrata 12; his son will be Dharma 13; his son will be Su\u015buma 14; his son will be Drid\u0301hasena 15; his son will be Sumati 16; his son will be Suvala 17; his son will be Sun\u00edta 18; his son will be Satyajit 19; his son will be Vi\u015bwajit 20; his son will be Ripunjaya 21. These are the V\u00e1rhadrathas, who will reign for a thousand years 22.\n465:1 Som\u00e1dhi; V\u00e1yu, Matsya: and they now affect greater precision, giving the years of the reigns.

V. and M.; Puranjaya and Vi\u015bwajit are identified, Bh\u00e1g.\n465:22 Our list and that of the V\u00e1yu specifies twenty-one kings after Sahadeva: the Bh\u00e1gavata specifies twenty, and in another passage states that to be the number. My copy of the Matsya names but nineteen, and the Radcliffe but twelve; but both agree in making the total thirty-two. They all concur with the text also in stating that 1000 years had elapsed from the great war, at the death of the last V\u00e1rhadratha prince; and this is more worthy of credit than the details, which are obviously imperfect.","title":"The Vishnu Purana: Book IV: Chapter XXIII","type":"page"}
