    28 Great Excess
  
  
    
      
      The Statement of the first hexagram
    
    
      The ridgepole sags. 
Gain by having a place to go. 
Continue.
    
   
  
    The changing lines
    
        
    The third line:
    A weak beam. 
Misfortune.  
  
    The fifth line:
    Withered wood blooms with flowers.
An old woman takes a husband. 
Neither fault nor praise.  
     
   
 
    
  
  
 
  
   
  
    40 Releasing
  
  
    The Statement of the second hexagram
  
  
   Gain in the west and south. 
No cause to move forward-
then comes return, and fortune. 
To have a place to go: dawn fortune.
  
   
 
     
    
        
    The Image of the first hexagram
  
  
    The lake overwhelms 
the trees: great excess. 
The noble one stands alone 
without fear, 
and can withdraw 
from the world 
without sorrow.  
      
      
      
      
     
    
        
    The Image of the second hexagram
  
  
    Thunder and rain act:
releasing. 
The noble one 
pardons errors
and forgives offenses.
