markandeyo mrkandasya

pranad vedasira munih

kavis ca bhargavo yasya

bhagavan usana sutah

 

Translation by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada: 

 

From Mrkanda, Markandeya Muni was born, and from Prana, the sage Vedasira, whose son was Usana [Sukracarya], also known as Kavi. Thus Kavi also belonged to the descendants of the Bhrgu dynasty.
