The verse opens with the conjunction kai {καὶ | kaí}, linking this scene to the preceding narrative, followed by a circumstantial participial phrase bastazon hautō ton stauron {βαστάζων αὑτῷ τὸν σταυρὸν | bastázōn hautô ton staurón} that describes the manner in which the implicit subject (Jesus) proceeds.
