Betacode
*)efh/lanto: e)peph/dhsan. 

Notes

  1. The headword is aorist indicative, third person plural, of e)fa/llomai. It is attested in previous literature only at Heliodorus, Aethiopica 5.25.1.
    Adler cites the Ambrosian Lexicon (2708) as a comparandum; and see also the parallel entry in ps.-Zonaras.
