Mk 6:16 ... And~hearing (these things) the Herod was-saying, ... "Whom I beheaded, John, this-one was-raised."

Verse 16 has 4 phrases and 11 words. The 1st phrase has 5 narrator words followed by these 6 dialog words, ... Akousas de ho Hrōdēs elegen, Hon egō apekefalisa, Iōannēn, houtos ēgerthē [And~hearing (these things), the Herod was saying, ... "Whom I beheaded, John, this one was raised"].

The 11 words are top down. The three words "ho Hrōdēs elegen" (the Herod was saying) are tangent to the ears and lips of Herod. The six dialog words are tangent to the beheaded John and the four men who were saying John was Elias or a prophet.
