59 Spreading

The Statement of the first hexagram

Spreading.

The king draws near to the temple.

Advance across the great river.

Gainful purity.

The changing lines

The second line:
Spreading and going directly toward

his platform. Regrets vanish.
The third line:
Spreading his twisting body.

No regrets.
The fourth line:
Spreading his flock. Great fortune.

Expanding and there are mounds.

No common person can understand this.
The fifth line:
Spreading sweat: his great command.

Expanding royal dwellings. No fault.
The sixth line:
Spreading his blood.

Go far away. No fault.

62 Small Crossing

The Statement of the second hexagram

Small crossing. Continue for gainful purity.

Small matters can be done,

but not large matters.

Flying birds leave their sound:

it is unsuitable to go high-

the suitable is below.

Great fortune.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

Wind moving above water:
spreading.
The ancient kings made
sacrificial offerings to God
and established temples.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Thunder above the
mountain: small crossing.
The noble one acts with
more than enough
reverence, destroys
excessive grief, and uses
more than enough
economy.
