ἐπάγονται δὲ ἐξ Ἰλιάδος ἔπη καὶ ἐκ Θηβαΐδος μαρτύριά σφισιν εἶναι τῷ λόγῳ,

The subject of ἐπάγονται is implicit; ἔπη and μαρτύριά are coordinated accusative subjects/predicative material of εἶναι, with σφισιν dative of reference and τῷ λόγῳ dative of respect or reference. The accent in μαρτύριά likely reflects a crasis/orthographic form for μαρτύρια.

Hom. Il. 23.346

The input is a bibliographic citation rather than a Greek syntactic sentence; tokenization splits the citation into individual letters, punctuation, and the numeral.

ὡς introduces a temporal/relative subordinate clause; Ἄδραστος is its subject and ἔφευγεν its imperfect predicate. εἵματα is the object of φέρων, with λυγρὰ agreeing; κυανοχαίτῃ is an attributive epithet of Ἀρείονι.

Thebaid, unknown location.

The supplied tokens spell an English gloss-like phrase rather than a Greek sentence; tokenization is character-level, so lexical and syntactic analysis is necessarily uncertain. The initial sequence is treated as a proper name and the remainder as an appositive description.

αἰνίσσεσθαι οὖν ἐθέλουσι τὰ ἔπη Ποσειδῶνα Ἀρείονι εἶναι πατέρα, Ἀντίμαχος δὲ παῖδα εἶναι Γῆς φησιν·

Infinitival construction: ἐθέλουσι governs αἰνίσσεσθαι, whose content is τὰ ἔπη; within the reported interpretation, Ποσειδῶνα is accusative subject of εἶναι and Ἀρείονι is dative complement. The second clause has Ἀντίμαχος as subject of φησιν, with παῖδα as accusative predicate and Γῆς as genitive complement; εἶναι is its infinitive.
