Mk 10:20 ... Then he said to him, ... "Teacher! All these I guard out of my youth."

Verse 20 has two phrases containing these 4 narrator and 7 dialog words, ... Ho de efē autō, "Didaskale! tauta panta efulaksamēs ek neotētos mou" (The yet he said to him, ... "Teacher! These things all I guard from youth of me").

The first phrase of 4 narrator words is bottom up, the 7 dialog words are top down to join the 4 narrator words. The word "Didaskale" (Teacher) is tangent to Jesus. The words "tauta panta" (these things all) are tangent to the five "do not" commandments of the previous diagram. The text finally gives this person his "name" or title of neos (the youth), a synonymn of neaniskos, the naked youth who will later be seen at the arrest of Jesus and at his tomb. The youths admission of being sinless (keeping all the commandments from his youth) is the reason Jesus will look at him with love in the next verse.
