This digital edition by Emmanuel Francis, based on Dayalan 2005, not sufficiently reliable. The distinction between vowel akṣaras and markers, and between Grantha and Tamil letters, cannot be implemented with full confidence. The present digital edition is thus provisional and should be revised with proper visual documentation.
