64 Not Yet Across

The Statement of the first hexagram

Not yet across. Continue.

The young fox, nearly across,

soaks its tail.

No place is gainful.

The changing lines

The first line:
Flooding his tail. Sorrow.
The second line:
Pulls his wheels.

Pure fortune.
The third line:
Not yet across. Attacking: misfortune.

Gain by crossing the great river.
The fifth line:
The prince's brilliance has sincerity.

Fortune.

13 Kindred

The Statement of the second hexagram

The kindred in the wilderness.
Continue.
Advance across the great river.
Gain by a wise one's purity.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Fire on top of water:
not yet across. The wise
one distinguishes things
carefully, and puts them
in their places.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Fire rises into heaven:
kindred. The noble one
groups and sorts
all that must be done.
