Lewis & Short

Parsing inflected forms may not always work as expected. If the following does not give the correct word, try Latin Words or Perseus.

ex-candĕfăcĭo, fēci, 3, v. a., to heat, inflame (perh. only in the foll. passages), trop.: excande me fecerunt cupiditate (tmesis), Varr. R. R. 3, 4, 1: annonam macelli, i. e. to enhance, raise, id. ib. 3, 2, 16; cf. exardesco and incendo.
