Mt 14:26a ... But the disciples having-seen him on the sea walking-around were-troubled, ...

Verse 26 has 4 phrases containing 17 narrator and 2 dialog words. The first phrase contains these 10 narrator words ... oi de mathētai idontes auton epi tēs thalassēs peripatounta etapaxthēsan (But the disciples having-seen him on the sea walking-around were-troubled, ... ).

The 10 words are bottom up. The word "peripatounta" comes from peri (around), and patounta (treading). The diagram shows the vesicas of Jesus "treading around" on the circumference of the sea all the way around the boat, just like the text says. The next part of the verse explains why the disciples were not just troubled, they were terrified.
