Sūta said: I shall mention the kings in all the manvantaras past and future, beginning with those in the Svāyambhuva manvantara. The grandsons of Svāyambhuva Manu were all very strong, with similar status, honour and identical purposes. They were the heroic sons of Priyavrata[4] and they are reputed to be ten,[5] viz., Āgnīdhra, Agnibāhu, Medhā, Medhātithi, Vasu, Jyotiṣmān, Dyutimān, Havya, Savana and Putra, Priyavrata crowned seven of them as kings over the seven continents.
