Vedic Reference
English
Vayya occurs in several passages of the Rigveda^1 in con-
nexion with Turvīti, of whom the word is, according to Sāyaṇa, ^2
a patronymic in one passage. Roth^3 is inclined to think that
the sense of ‘companion’ would suit all passages.
1) i. 54, 6
112, 6 (where Turvīti does
not occur)
ii. 13, 12
iv. 19, 6.
2) On Rv. i. 54, 6.
3) St. Petersburg Dictionary, s.v.,
quoting ix. 68, 8, as a clear case.
