Open translation for this passage
ἀνωτέρω τούτων ἐστὶν ἡ Λυκάονος Καλλιστὼ καὶ Νομία τε καὶ ἡ Νηλέως Πηρώ· ταύτης ἕδνα τῶν γάμων βοῦς ὁ Νηλεὺς ᾔτει τὰς Ἰφίκλου.
The first clause is a verbless/copular identification with three coordinated female names. In the second clause, ἕδνα and βοῦς are objects of ᾔτει; τὰς Ἰφίκλου is textually or morphologically difficult as transmitted, so its analysis is tentative.
