Mk 16:5b ... they-saw a-youth, sitting on the rights, ...

The 2nd and 3rd phrases have these 6 narrator words ... eidon neaniskon, kathēmenon en tois dexiois (they-saw a-youth, sitting on the rights, ...).

The 6 narrator words are bottom up from the 3 women to the youth sitting in the top ledge of the tomb. The 2 words "eidon neaniskon" (they-saw a-youth) are tangent to 2 corners of the tomb and the 3 women who saw him. The 4 words "kathēmenon en tois dexiois" (sitting on the rights) are tangent to the 3 women and the youth. The word "dexiois" (rights) is a dative plural adjective that describes 3 word plays where "a-youth" sits on the "3 rights."
Wordplay 1: The word "neaniskon" (a-youth) is far from the 'youth' sitting on the top of two translucent equilateral triangles tangent to the words "sitting rights." This appears to be the same 'naked youth' in the Secret Gospel (Mk10), the same 'youth' who fled naked leaving behind his 'sindon' (a linen wrapper) after Jesus was arrested (Mk14:51). Instead, the word "neaniskon" (a-youth) is sitting 'on the right' side of the tomb.
Wordplay 2: The word "neaniskon" (a-youth) is sitting "on the right" side of the three women!
Wordplay 3: The image of "a-youth" sitting in the nitch at the top of the tomb is sitting on the dative plural word "dexiois" (rights)!
