Mk 6:29a ... And having-heard, the disciples of-him came and raised the corpse of-him, ...

Verse 29 has 3 phrases and 16 narrator words. The 1st and 2nd phrases have these 11 words, ... Kai akousantes, hoi mathētai autou ēlthon kai ēran to ptōma autou (And having-heard, the disciples of-him came and raised the corpse of-him, ... ).

The 11 narrator words are bottom up. The first 2 words "Kai akousantes" (And having heard) are tangent to the ears of the first disciple who hears the first two words. The next 6 words "hoi mathētai autou ēlthon kai ēran" (the disciples of him came and raised) are tangent to two more disciples who have been raised above the first disciple. The last 3 words "to ptōma autou" (the corpse of him) are tangent to the top green triangle and the white triangle holding the corpse of John the Baptist. The last word "autou" (of him) is exactly tangent to the head of his corpse.
