The fifth phrase has these 2 dialog words, ... ē alektorofōnias (or at the cock-crow, ...). The 2 dialog words are top down. Alektorophonia, from Alektor (cock or rooster) and phonia (a sound made by man or beast) is the name of the third watch, hours six to nine (12 pm to 3 am), signified by nine dark circles. The sky in the background is completely dark. The sound here is signified as a cockcrow coming from a Roman soldier sounding the change of the guard at 3 am. ē ō 13:35d < Verses > 13:35f |
