Mk 4:18a ... "And others are the-ones into the thorn-flowers being-sown, ..."

Verse 18 has 2 phrases and 14 dialog words. The 1st phrase has 8 words ... Kai alloi eisin oi eis tas akanthas speiromenoi ("And others are the-ones into the thorn-flowers being-sown ...").

The 8 dialog words are top down. What follows is a flashback account of how these men were sown into the thorns. The words "Kai alloi eisin oi" (And others are the ones) are tangent to the faces of the two men. The words "eis tas akanthas speiromenoi" (into the thorn-flowers being-sown) are tangent to the white equilateral triangles holding the thorn-flowers. Like the previous two pairs of men (the ones sown by the way and the ones sown on the rock formations), the diagram showing these two men agrees with the imagery of the text.
