The Hexagrams
44 Kou Coming to Meet
The Judgment
Coming to Meet. The maiden is powerful.
One should not marry such a maiden.
The Image
Under heaven, wind:
The image of Coming to Meet.
Thus does the prince act when disseminating his commands
And proclaiming them to the four quarters of heaven.
Six at the beginning means:
It must be checked with a brake of bronze.
Perseverance brings good fortune.
If one lets it take its course, one experiences misfortune.
Even a lean pig has it in him to rage around.
Nine in second place means:
* There is a fish in the tank. No blame.
Does not further guests.
Nine in third place means:
There is no skin on his thighs,
And walking comes hard.
If one is mindful of the danger,
No great mistake is made.
Nine in fourth place means:
No fish in the tank.
This leads to misfortune.
Nine in fifth place means:
* A melon covered with willow leaves.
Hidden lines.
Then it drops down to one from heaven.
Nine at the top means:
He comes to meet with his horns.
Humiliation. No blame.
