Mk 4:12c ... "and hearing they-may-hear, ..."

The 3rd phrase has these 3 dialog words ... kai akouontes akouōsin ("and hearing they-may-hear, ...").

The three dialog words are top down. The text uses the verb akouō, hearing with your ears. The three dialog circles come down tangent to the sign of hearing. Jesus holds his hearing circles up to his ears. All four men stand inside the triangles that hold them and the hearing circles tangent to their ears rest on or against the sides of the triangle holding the man standing in the bottom of the hexagon.
