The Judgement

Preponderance of the Great.

The ridgepole sags to the breaking point.

It furthers one to have somewhere to go.

Success.

The Image

The lake rises above the trees:

The image of Preponderance of the Great.

Thus the superior man, when he stands alone,

Is unconcerned,

And if he has to renounce the world,

He is undaunted.

Changing Lines

Changing yin at the bottom means:

To spread white rushes underneath.

No blame.

Changing yang in the second place means:

A dry poplar sprouts at the root.

An older man takes a young wife.

Everything furthers.

Changing yang in the third place means:

The ridgepole sags to the breaking point.

Misfortune.

Changing yang in the fourth place means:

The ridgepole is braced. Good fortune.

If there are ulterior motives, it is humiliating.

Changing yang in the fifth place means:

A withered poplar puts forth flowers.

An older woman takes a husband.

No blame. No praise.

Changing yin at the top means:

One must go through the water.

It goes over one's head.

Misfortune. No blame.
