Μύρωνα δὲ ἐπί τε ἄλλοις καταμαθεῖν ἔστιν οὐ προορώμενον εἰ ψευδῆ τε καὶ οὐ πιθανὰ δόξει λέγειν καὶ οὐχ ἥκιστα ἐν τῇδε τῇ Μεσσηνίᾳ συγγραφῇ.

Μύρωνα is the accusative subject of the impersonal ἔστιν with complementary καταμαθεῖν; προορώμενον is an accusative masculine participle agreeing with Μύρωνα, with εἰ introducing the content apprehended. The final καὶ οὐχ ἥκιστα phrase modifies the scope of the claim in the Messenian narrative; attachment of ἐπί τε ἄλλοις is somewhat interpretive.
