μέγεθος μὲν κατὰ μυρσίνης θάμνον τὰ πάλσαμά ἐστι, φύλλα δὲ αὐτοῖς κατὰ τὴν πόαν τὸ σάμψουχον·

Copular nominal clauses: μέγεθος is fronted subject/predicate with ἐστι; τὰ πάλσαμα is the first nominal predicate, while φύλλα is coordinated subject/topic and τὸ σάμψουχον its predicate. The forms πόαν and μυρσίνης are accusative objects of κατά; αὐτοῖς is dative of possession/reference. Exact syntactic attachment of the first μέγεθος is somewhat uncertain.
