Mk 12b ...
"and not may-they-perceive, ..."

The 2nd phrase has these 3 dialog words ... kai mē idōsin ("and not may-they-perceive, ...").
The 3 dialog words are top down tangent to the same objects as in the previous diagram. The
Greek verb eido means to "perceive with your mind" what your eyes see. The two words "mē idōsin" (not may they-be-perceiving) are tangent to an empty circle, the sign of "not understanding what you are seeing."
