      The Statement of the first hexagram
    
    
      Plentiful. Progress. 
The great king arrives. Do not grieve. 
All is right as the midday sun.
    
   
  
    The changing lines
    
        
    The first line:
    Meeting one's suitable lord. 
In spite of sameness, no fault. 
Going has honor.  
  
    The third line:
    Plentiful flow. 
Seeing darkness at noon. 
Breaking one's right forearm. No fault.  
  
    The fourth line:
    Plentiful screens. 
Seeing the northern stars at noon. 
Meeting one's great lord. Fortune.  
     
   
 
    
  
  
 
  
   
  
    2 Earth
  
  
    The Statement of the second hexagram
  
  
   Earth: maker, everywhere. 
Gain from a mare's purity.
The noble one wanting to go far
is first confused, but later finds guidance. 
Gain friends in the west and south,
Lose friends in the east and north.
Peace: this is a sign of fortune.

punishments.  
      
      
      
      
     
    
        
    The Image of the second hexagram
  
  
    Ground as the power 
of earth:
the noble one generously
supports all things.
