Open translation for this passage
πρῶτα μὲν δὴ πομπὴν μεγαλοπρεπεστάτην τῇ Ἀρτέμιδι πομπεύουσι, καὶ ἡ ἱερωμένη παρθένος ὀχεῖται τελευταία τῆς πομπῆς ἐπὶ ἐλάφων ὑπὸ τὸ ἅρμα ἐζευγμένων·
The first clause has an implicit subject (the procession participants) with πομπεύουσι; in the second, ἡ ἱερωμένη παρθένος is the subject of ὀχεῖται. ἐζευγμένων agrees with ἐλάφων and is genitive absolute-like/postpositive under ὑπὸ τὸ ἅρμα, describing deer yoked beneath the chariot; the precise attachment of the participial phrase is moderately uncertain.

κατατιθέασι δὲ ἐπὶ τὸν βωμὸν καὶ δένδρων καρπὸν τῶν ἡμέρων.
The finite verb governs an implied subject; καρπόν is the object, with δένδρων and τῶν ἡμέρων forming a genitive phrase modifying it. ἐπί with accusative marks the destination. The form κατατιθέασι is morphologically ambiguous in isolation between a present active 3PL and a contract-like/variant spelling; parsed here as present active indicative 3PL.
