    The changing lines
    
        
    The first line:
    Do not mix with the harmful 
and there will be no disaster.  
A pattern of difficulty, but no fault.  
  
    The second line:
    A big wagon, loaded, with a place to go. 
No fault.  
  
    The third line:
    The duke makes an offering 
to the Son of Heaven. 
The small are unable to do this.
