Jn 21:15d ... (Jesus) he-says to-him, ... "Graze the little-lambs of-me."

The 8th and 9th phrases contain these 2 narrator and 4 dialog words, ... legei autō, boske ta arnia mou (he-says to-him, ... "Graze the little-lambs of-me").

The 2 narrator words are tangent to the face of Jesus. The 4 dialog words are bottom up. The Greek verb bosko (graze, feed) means to graze livestock with living food and is tangent to and overlaps the food inside the vesicas of the "little-lambs," a nickname for disciples. The 3 word diminutive plural term to arnia mou (the little-lambs of-me) is tangent to and overlaps Jesus. The diagram shows Simon feeds the "men" with the double portion he ate at the start of this pericope.
