तेषां सहस्रशो राजन्पर्वतास्तु समीपतः । अभिज्ञाताः सारवन्तो विपुलाश्चित्रसानवः॥६-१०-११॥

Near them, O King, are mountains by the thousand—well known, rich in resources, vast, and marked by varied ridgelines and slopes.

english translation

अन्ये ततोऽपरिज्ञाता ह्रस्वा ह्रस्वोपजीविनः । आर्या म्लेच्छाश्च कौरव्य तैर्मिश्राः पुरुषा विभो॥६-१०-१२॥

Beyond them are others, not well known—of small stature and living by scant means. O Kauravya, there are Āryas and also mlecchas; and the peoples there, O lord, are of mixed communities.

english translation

नदीः पिबन्ति बहुला गङ्गां सिन्धुं सरस्वतीम् । गोदावरीं नर्मदां च बाहुदां च महानदीम्॥६-१०-१३॥

Many peoples drink from the rivers—the Gaṅgā, the Sindhu, the Sarasvatī, the Godāvarī, the Narmadā, the Bāhudā, and the great Mahānadī.

english translation

शतद्रुं चन्द्रभागां च यमुनां च महानदीम् । दृषद्वतीं विपाशां च विपापां स्थूलवालुकाम्॥६-१०-१४॥

(They drink also from) the Śatadru, the Candrabhāgā, and the Yamunā—each a great river—and likewise the Dṛṣadvatī, the Vipāśā, and the Vipāpā, the one with broad sandy banks.

english translation

नदीं वेत्रवतीं चैव कृष्णवेणां च निम्नगाम् । इरावतीं वितस्तां च पयोष्णीं देविकामपि॥६-१०-१५॥

And (they drink) from the river Vetravatī, and from the Kṛṣṇaveṇā that flows down to the lowlands; also from the Irāvatī, the Vitastā, the Payoṣṇī, and the Devikā.
