      The Statement of the first hexagram
    
    
      Nourishing. Pure fortune. 
Watch the jaws
and what one seeks to fill one's mouth.
    
   
  
    The changing lines
    
        
    The first line:
    You put aside your divine turtle
And watch my moving jaws: misfortune.  
  
    The fourth line:
    Moving jaws are fortunate. 
Like a glaring tiger, passion runs full, 
but there is no fault.

of many breeding horses,
welcoming them three times 
in one day.
  
   
 
     
    
        
    The Image of the first hexagram

The noble one is 
careful in speech 
and temperate 
while eating and drinking.

the earth: advancing. 
The noble one brightens 
her own virtue.
