Exegesis
The infinitive anachthēnai {ἀναχθῆναι | anachthēnai} ‘to set sail’ takes hēmas {ἡμᾶς | hēmâs} ‘us’ as its accusative subject, while the participle apospasthentas {ἀποσπασθέντας | apospasthéntas} ‘having been parted’ in the accusative masculine plural parallels the infinitive to describe separation from autōn {αὐτῶν | autôn} ‘them.’
