Exegesis
The subject of the first clause is hoi asteres {οἱ ἀστέρες | hoí astéres} ‘the stars’, followed by the future middle verb esontai {ἔσονται | ésontai} ‘will be’ and the present participle piptontes {πίπτοντες | píptontes} ‘falling’. This periphrastic construction portrays the stars in the ongoing process of falling rather than a single completed event.
