Exegesis
A chain of nominative masculine plural participles—peisantes {πείσαντες | peí-san-tes} and lithasantes {λιθάσαντες | li-thá-san-tes}—presents their actions in sequence as backgrounded circumstances leading up to the imperfect main verb esuron {ἔσυρον | é-su-ron} “they were dragging,” which carries the narrative foreground.
