These are the snakes, born of Vasuki, that fell into the fire. O Brahmana, numerous other fearful and powerful snakes, born in the family of Takshaka, were burnt in the blazing fire. Hear, I shall mention their names now.
एते वासुकिजा नागाः प्रविष्टा हव्यवाहने। अन्ये च बहवो विप्र तथा वै कुलसंभवाः। प्रदीप्ताग्नौ हुताः सर्वे घोररूपा महाबलाः॥ तक्षकस्य कुले जातान्प्रवक्ष्यामि निबोध तान्।
