44 Copulating

The Statement of the first hexagram

Copulating: the woman is powerful.
Do not marry such a woman.

The changing lines

The first line:
Checked by a metal brake: pure fortune.
There's a place to go, but misfortune
will be seen. A weak pig will surely falter.
The second line:
The wrapping has fish. No fault.
Not gainful for guests.
The third line:
Buttocks without skin: one walks uneasily.
Harsh, but no great fault.
The fifth line:
Like a gourd surrounded by willows,
and held in place,
there comes a falling from heaven.
The sixth line:
Copulating with a horn. Remorse.
No fault.

51 Thunder

The Statement of the second hexagram

Thunder everywhere.
Thunder comes frighteningly.
People laugh and exclaim.
Thunder terrifies for one hundred miles,
but do not lose the ladle
of sacrificial wine.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Wind under heaven:
copulating.
The sovereign
issues commands
to the four quarters.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Continuous thunder
on thunder.
The noble one examines
his morals
in fear and dread.
