**Analysis:** *cē* (stem) + *i* (past tense marker) + *y* (glide) + *a* (participial suffix). Cf. ***cēvit-ōṉ*** **(18.3)**, ***cēy-a*** **(31.2)** and ***cētavar*** **(35.3)** for other similar forms. The form ***cē-iya*** is not attested elsewhere; but the verb occurs as *cē* in early medieval inscriptions.
