Now hear, O best of Brahmanas, the names of the snakes, born in the family of Kauravya, that I mention. Eraka, Kundala Veni, Veniskandha, Kumaraka, Bahuka, Shringavera, Dhurtaka, Pratara and Ataka, these, born in the Kauravya family, fell into the fire.
कौरव्यकुलजान्नाञ्छृणु मे त्वं द्विजोत्तम। एरकः कुण्डलो वेणी वेणीस्कन्धः कुमारकः॥ बाहुकः शृङ्गवेश्च धूर्तकप्रातरातको। कौरव्यकुलजास्त्वेते प्रविष्टा हव्यवाहनम्॥
