ὅτι γὰρ μὴ τῇ Κυνίσκᾳ τὸ ἐπίγραμμα ἐποίησεν ὅστις δή, καὶ ἔτι πρότερον Παυσανίᾳ τὸ ἐπὶ τῷ τρίποδι Σιμωνίδης τῷ ἀνατεθέντι ἐς Δελφούς, ἄλλο δέ γε παρὰ ἀνδρὸς ποιητοῦ Λακεδαιμονίων τοῖς βασιλεῦσιν οὐδέν ἐστιν ἐς μνήμην.
Subordination with ὅτι (causal/content-like) and two coordinated clauses: τὸ ἐπίγραμμα ἐποίησεν ὅστις δή; then elliptical οὐδέν ἐστιν ἐς μνήμην, with τὸ ... ἀνατεθέντι functioning as an accusative phrase related to the earlier inscription context. Some attachment of the initial μὴ-clause and the two datives (Κυνίσκᾳ, Παυσανίᾳ) is syntactically uncertain.
