c28.s7.t10.14

The name *viyakkaṉ* probably occurs in the phrase *veñciṉa viyakkaṉum*, 'and also the indignant Viyakkaṉ' (*Puṟa.* 71:14); the old commentary construes the phrase as *veñciṉa-v-iyakkaṉ-um*, although the resulting word *iyakkaṉ* (Skt. *yakṣha*) occurs nowhere else in Caṅkam literature.
