ταῦτα μὲν δὴ ἔχοντά ἐστιν οὕτω,

θῦσαι δὲ ἐν Ἑλικῶνι Μούσαις πρώτους καὶ ἐπονομάσαι τὸ ὄρος ἱερὸν εἶναι Μουσῶν Ἐφιάλτην καὶ Ὦτον λέγουσιν,
The sentence reports that Ephialtes and Otus were said to be the first to sacrifice to the Muses on Helicon and to name the mountain sacred to the Muses; θῦσαι has an elliptical/compressed accusative complement reflected in the uncertain attachment of πρώτους.

καὶ δὴ καὶ Ἡγησίνους ἐπὶ τῷδε ἐν τῇ Ἀτθίδι ἐποίησεν,
The sentence has an elided or context-dependent predicate construction: Ἡγησίνους is accusative, likely the object of an understood or contextually supplied verb, while ἐποίησεν is an aorist active third-singular verb whose object is not overtly expressed here. ἐπὶ τῷδε is most naturally causal ('on account of this'), and ἐν τῇ Ἀτθίδι is locative. The exact attachment of Ἡγησίνους is therefore somewhat uncertain.

The Greek passage is syntactically clear through token 31; tokens 32–63 are an English metadata string supplied as character tokens, so they are tagged as X and attached to the sentence root with low confidence. In the first clause, Ἄσκρῃ is a dative locative/topic, παρέλεκτο is the verbal root, and Ποσειδάων ἐνοσίχθων its subject; ἣ resumes Ἄσκρη, while οἱ is dative with τέκε. περιπλομένων ἐνιαυτῶν is a genitive absolute.
