SO4 LR6 is the mnemonic here...SO for superior oblique which is supplied by the 4th CN and LR for lateral rectus which is supplied by the 6th CN...and the remaining muscles are supplied by the 3rd CN

superior rectus=elevates, adducts, and medially rotates the eyeball
inferior rectus=depresses, adducts, and laterally rotates the eyeball
medial rectus=adducts
lateral rectus=abducts
superior oblique=depresses, abducts, and medially rotates
inferior oblique=elevates, abducts, and laterally rotates.
