Ἀθηναίοις δὲ ἦν μὲν ἡ πρόφασις ἐκ τοῦ Πελοποννησίων πολέμου καὶ ἐκ νόσου τῆς λοιμώδους ἐπανήκειν τὴν πόλιν ἐς τὴν πρότερόν ποτε οὖσαν εὐδαιμονίαν· πυνθανόμενοι δὲ διʼ ἀγγέλων ὡς Κόνων ὁ Τιμοθέου παρὰ βασιλέα ἀναβεβηκὼς εἴη, κατὰ τοῦτο ἡσύχαζον μάλιστα.

The first clause has an impersonal ἦν with πρόφασις as subject and an articular infinitive phrase as its content; ὡς introduces indirect discourse, with εἴη as optative in reported speech and ἀναβεβηκώς agreeing with Κόνων. The attachment of κατὰ τοῦτο is adverbial to ἡσύχαζον.
