Appian [writes]: "the Celt, angry and losing blood, pursued Valerius, eager to have them fall together; but with Valerius constantly retreating underfoot, the Celt fell flat on his face. And the Romans used to boast about this second duel at the Celts' expense".[2]

Notes:
For the headword verb
lifaime/w see LSJ s.v.
[1] The same material, so far, in
Synagoge lambda122,
Photius lambda364 Theodoridis; cf.
Hesychius lambda1136. The headword itself -- third person singular, present indicative active, of the verb
lifaime/w -- is evidently quoted from somewhere (not necessarily Appian, to whom it is attributed in the LSJ simply because of the quotation below, which has the corresponding present participle).
[2] Appian,
Celtica fr. 10. Presumably from Appian's version of the story of Valerius Corvinus' duel (cf.
alpha 1685,
kappa 1307,
kappa 2070).
