Translation
Thus, in the Śrī Brahmāṇḍa Mahāpurāṇa, in the former section spoken by Vāyu, in the second Anuṣaṅga-pāda, is the thirty-sixth chapter called “The Account of the Remaining Manvantaras and the Milking of the Earth.” Sūta said: as has been heard, this Vasudhā extended to the ocean’s bounds; because she bears the vasus—treasures and wealth—she is sung of as “Vasudhā.”
