Mk 4:7a ... "And other (seed) fell into the thorn-bushes, ..."

Verse 7 has 4 phrases and 17 dialog words. The 1st phrase has these 6 words ... kai allo epesen eis tas akanthas ("And other fell into the thorn-bushes, ...").

The 6 dialog words are top-down. The word ankantha comes from aka (a point), akantha (a thorn), and anthos (a flower). The 6 words in the dialog circles contain 2 signs: "allo" (other "seed") and "akanthas" (thorn flower-bushes). The last 2 words, "tas akanthas" (the thorn flower-bushes) are tangent to the two equilateral triangles tangent to all three 3 thorn-bushes. The diagram shows "a seed" has fallen into the crotch of two thorns in each bush.
