Mk 15:8 ... And having-gone-up, the crowd began to-beg just-as he-used-to-do for-them.

Verse 8 has 2 phrases and these 9 narrator words ... kai anabas, ho oxlos ērksato aiteisthai kathōs epoiei autois (And having-gone-up, the crowd began to-beg just-as he-used-to-do for-them).

The 9 narrator words are bottom up. The crowd that was in the Festival rectangle in verse 7b, the previous diagram, has now gone up to beg Pilate to release this years bound prisoner. The 3 words "anabas ho oxlos" (having gone up the crowd) are tangent to the entire crowd stepping up. The 5 words "erksato aiteisthai kathos epoiei autois" (began to beg just as he used to do for them) are tangent to the crowd, the triangle holding Pilate, and location of the circles they are begging Pilate to repeat his custom of releasing a bound prisoner to them.
