The first member of a tat-puruṣa samāsa preserves its original accent when its second term is sukha or priya and the sense is 'agreeable to one' or 'desired'.,
Thus ब्राह्मणसुखं पायसं \the sweet milk desired by or agreeable to the Brahmanas\, छात्रप्रियोऽनध्यायः ॥ कन्याप्रियो मृदङ्गः ॥ &c. The words ब्राह्मण and छात्र have acute on the final being formed by the affixes अण् and ण 5.4.62 respectively (III. I. 3) and कन्या has svarita on the final. When not meaning agreeable to or desired, we have राजसुखम्, राजप्रियम् ॥,
