Open translation for this passage
ἄγει μὲν δὴ ὁ Σόρων τὴν ἐπὶ Ψωφῖδος·
The phrase τὴν ἐπὶ Ψωφῖδος is elliptical; the article likely anticipates an omitted noun (e.g. ὁδόν), so the attachment of the prepositional phrase is somewhat uncertain.

λύρας ἂν ποιήσαιο ἐξ αὐτῶν χελώνης Ἰνδικῆς λύρᾳ παρισουμένας.
Syntax is compressed and somewhat elliptical; the participial phrase παρισουμένας likely qualifies λύρας, with ἐξ αὐτῶν and λύρᾳ forming dependent oblique phrases.

ὅροι δὲ Κλειτορίοις τῆς χώρας πρὸς Ψωφιδίους εἰσὶν αἱ Σεῖραι.
The syntax is a copular clause with ὅροι as subject and Σεῖραι as the main nominative complement; Κλειτορίοις is likely a dative modifier of ὅροι, while τῆς χώρας specifies the territory and πρὸς Ψωφιδίους adds the boundary relation.
