 https://www.google.com/search?q=Kusadvipa

64. In the continent Kusadvipa 1 there is that stump of Kusa grass a thousand Yojanas (in height). Since the continent is distinguished with Kusa as its symbol, it is called Kusadvipa. 

65. The Lord of that continent is Hiranyaroma, son of Priyavrata. There are seven sub-continents named after his sons, viz. Vasu, Vasudana, Drdha, Kavi, Nabhigupta, Satyavrata and Vamadeva. The four castes are called Kuli§a, Kovida, Abhiyukta and Kulaka. They eulogize the Fire-god. 

66. “O Fire-god (the knower of all created things), you are the carrier of oblations directly to the Supreme Brahman (or you form a part of the body of the transcendental Barhman). Worship the Supreme Person by sacrifice (sacrificial oblations) offered to gods who are the limbs of the body of the Cosmic Person.”

Kama Burnt

40. Thereafter, O son of Pandu, Kama was reduced to ash by the fire emanating from the third eye even as the heaven- dwellers were lamenting. 
41. After reducing him to ash, the fire that arose from the eyes of Hara increased in size in order to bum the entire universe. It filled the faces of all cardinal points with its flames. 
42-43. Thereafter, for the sake of the people of the universe Bhava divided that fire of Smara among 
  1. proud people, 
  2. moon, 
  3. flowers, 
  4. songs, 
  5. bees, 
  6. beaks of the cuckoo and 
  7. sporting grounds. 
Indeed when one is near them, the heart of lovers becomes more affectionate.
