Grammar parses for passage 9.39.7
Open translation for this passage
πρῶτα μὲν ἐν τῇ νυκτὶ αὐτὸν ἄγουσιν ἐπὶ τὸν ποταμὸν τὴν Ἕρκυναν, ἀγαγόντες δὲ ἐλαίῳ χρίουσι καὶ λούουσι δύο παῖδες τῶν ἀστῶν ἔτη τρία που καὶ δέκα γεγονότες, οὓς Ἑρμᾶς ἐπονομάζουσιν· οὗτοι τὸν καταβαίνοντά εἰσιν οἱ λούοντες καὶ ὁπόσα χρὴ διακονούμενοι ἅτε παῖδες.
The passage contains coordinated finite clauses; the final εἰσιν clause is treated as a second root because no overt coordinator links it to the preceding predicates. The relative clause οὓς Ἑρμᾶς ἐπονομάζουσιν modifies the boys.
