τούτοις χρῆσαι τὴν Πυθίαν φασίν· ὕστατος ἡρώων Κλεομήδης Ἀστυπαλαιεύς, ὃν θυσίαις τιμᾶ θʼ ἅ τε μηκέτι θνητὸν ἐόντα.
Infinitival φασίν construction has an elliptical/quoted oracle utterance: χρῆσαι governs τὴν Πυθίαν as accusative subject, while the following hexameter-like clause gives the oracle content; ὃν is the object of τιμᾷ, and ἅ τε likely introduces the reason/content of honoring, with ἐόντα agreeing with Κλεομήδης.
