ἔστι μὲν οὖν γῆς χῶμα οὐ μέγα, λίθου κρηπῖδι ἐν κύκλῳ περιεχόμενον·
Copular/existential ἔστι has subject χῶμα; γῆς is a genitive of material, while περιεχόμενον agrees with χῶμα and takes κρηπῖδι as an instrumental/dative complement. The phrase ἐν κύκλῳ modifies the manner or location of containment.
