τὸ δὲ διὰ τῆς θαλάσσης ἰόντα ἐνταῦθα ἀνακοινοῦσθαι τὸ ὕδωρ πρὸς τὴν πηγὴν οὐκ ἔστιν ὅπως ἀπιστήσω, τὸν θεὸν ἐπιστάμενος τὸν ἐν Δελφοῖς ὁμολογοῦντά σφισιν, ὃς Ἀρχίαν τὸν Κορίνθιον ἐς τὸν Συρακουσῶν ἀποστέλλων οἰκισμὸν καὶ τάδε εἶπε τὰ ἔπη·
Infinitival subject τὸ ... ἀνακοινοῦσθαι is governed by impersonal οὐκ ἔστιν ὅπως ἀπιστήσω; ἰόντα agrees with the neuter subject phrase. The final relative clause modifies τὸν θεόν, with ὁμολογοῦντα agreeing with θεόν and Ἀρχίαν as its object.
