Open translation for this passage
Νικίας δὲ ἐπὶ τῷδε παρείθη, γράφω δὲ οὐδὲν διάφορα ἢ Φίλιστος, ὃς ἔφη Δημοσθένην μὲν σπονδὰς ποιήσασθαι τοῖς ἄλλοις πλὴν αὑτοῦ καὶ ὡς ἡλίσκετο αὑτὸν ἐπιχειρεῖν ἀποκτεῖναι, Νικίᾳ δὲ τὴν παράδοσιν ἐθελοντῇ γενέσθαι·
The sentence coordinates Nicias's account with Philistus's version; ὃς introduces a relative clause with indirect discourse under ἔφη. The final infinitives depend on ἔφη, while ὡς introduces the temporal/circumstantial clause with ἡλίσκετο; ἐθελοντῇ is a predicative dative with γενέσθαι.
