Open translation for this passage
λέγεται δὲ ὡς Ἡρακλῆς κατὰ πρόσταγμα Εὐρυσθέως παρὰ τῷ Ἐρυμάνθῳ θηράσειεν ὗν μεγέθει καὶ ἀλκῇ τοὺς ἄλλους ὑπερηρκότα.
The main difficulty is the reported-content construction: λέγεται governs an ὡς-clause with an optative verb, and the participle ὑπερηρκότα is attached to ὗν while taking its own accusative object ἄλλους and dative respect phrases μεγέθει καὶ ἀλκῇ.
