τὴν Ἀρκαδίαν καὶ ἄλλοτε αὐτὸν ἐν ἄλλῳ θηρεύειν τῶν ὀρῶν, ἀφικόμενον δὲ καὶ πρὸς τὸ Ἐλάιον κατοπτεῦσαι τὴν Δήμητρα σχήματός τε ὡς εἶχε καὶ ἐσθῆτα ἐνεδέδυτο ποίαν·

Elliptical infinitival construction, apparently continuing an omitted finite verb: an accusative subject αὐτόν controls θηρεύειν, while ἀφικόμενον and κατοπτεῦσαι form coordinated/serial infinitives. The final ποίαν is an interrogative adjective modifying ἐσθῆτα; τὴν Δήμητρα is the object of κατοπτεῦσαι.
