Mk 5:28 ... For she-said that, ... "Even if I-may-touch the garments of-him I-will-be-healed."

Verse 28 has these 3 narrator and 7 dialog words ... Elegen gar hoti, ean apsōmai kan tōn himatiōn autou sōthēsomai (For she-was-saying that, ... "If I-should-touch even the garments of-him I-will-be-healed").

The 10 words are clockwise starting bottom right. In verse 28 the woman has already been healed. In her mind, she is having a flashback in time about what she must do to be healed. Even though the woman only touched one garment in the previous verse (5:27b) she must have intended to touch the body of Jesus, but if that failed, then just his "himatiōn" (plural of garments) would be enough to heal her. The woman believed the "touch of his garments" would kill her Unclean Spirit and cure her of it's scourge.
