Open translation for this passage
πλανωμένῃ γὰρ τῇ Δήμητρι, ἡνίκα τὴν παῖδα ἐζήτει, λέγουσιν ἕπεσθαί οἱ τὸν Ποσειδῶνα ἐπιθυμοῦντα αὐτῇ μιχθῆναι.
The opening dative participial clause is subordinate to λέγουσιν, with ἐζήτει as its temporal clause; the reported infinitive has Ποσειδῶνα as accusative subject and ἐπιθυμοῦντα as a co-referential participle.

καὶ τὴν μὲν ἐς ἵππον μεταβαλοῦσαν ὁμοῦ ταῖς ἵπποις νέμεσθαι ταῖς Ὀγκίου, Ποσειδῶν δὲ συνίησεν ἀπατώμενος καὶ συγγίνεται τῇ Δήμητρι ἄρσενι ἵππῳ καὶ αὐτὸς εἰκασθείς.
The first coordinated infinitival clause is governed by an omitted verb from the preceding context; μεταβαλοῦσαν agrees with τὴν (Demeter), while νέμεσθαι takes the coordinated dative phrase ταῖς ἵπποις ταῖς Ὀγκίου. The finite clause has Ποσειδῶν as subject; συγγίνεται is present historic, and ἄρσενι ἵππῳ is an instrumental/associative dative. The attachment of καὶ αὐτὸς εἰκασθείς is somewhat compressed.
