γενέσθαι δὲ τῷ ποταμῷ τὸ ὄνομα ἀπὸ Βουφάγου φασὶν ἥρωος, εἶναι δὲ Ἰαπετοῦ τε παῖδα αὐτὸν καὶ Θόρνακος.
Two coordinated infinitival clauses are governed by φασίν: γενέσθαι τῷ ποταμῷ τὸ ὄνομα, with ἀπὸ Βουφάγου ἥρωος as source, and εἶναι αὐτὸν παῖδα Ἰαπετοῦ τε καὶ Θόρνακος; αὐτόν is accusative subject of εἶναι. The final Θόρνακος is morphologically ambiguous in form but functions as a coordinated genitive name.

λέγουσι δὲ καὶ ὡς ἐν Φολόῃ τῷ ὄρει τοξεύσειεν Ἄρτεμις Βουφάγον ἔργα τολμήσαντα οὐχ ὅσια ἐς τὴν θεόν.
Main verb λέγουσι governs a content clause introduced by ὡς; τοξεύσειεν is an optative in reported speech, with Ἄρτεμις as subject and Βουφάγον as object. τολμήσαντα agrees with Βουφάγον and takes ἔργα as its object; οὐχ ὅσια ἔργα is the predicate description of those deeds, with ἐς τὴν θεόν dependent on ὅσια.
