τὰ μὲν δὴ ἐς τὸν Ἄνυτον ὑπὸ Ἀρκάδων λέγεται·

The impersonal/passive λέγεται governs τὰ μέν as the topical subject (‘these things are said’); ἐς τὸν Ἄνυτον is a prepositional complement, and ὑπό with the genitive marks the Arcadians as the source/agent. The exact semantic force of ἐς is context-dependent.

Δήμητρος δὲ Ἄρτεμιν θυγατέρα εἶναι καὶ οὐ Λητοῦς, ὄντα Αἰγυπτίων τὸν λόγον Αἰσχύλος ἐδίδαξεν Εὐφορίωνος τοὺς Ἕλληνας.

The accusative-infinitive construction is the content object of ἐδίδαξεν: Aeschylus taught the Greeks that Artemis was Demeter’s daughter and not Leto’s; ὄντα agrees with τὸν λόγον and modifies the intervening explanatory phrase. The syntax of Δήμητρος is somewhat elliptical/idiomatic, likely dependent on θυγατέρα.
