How will the opening go?

48 Well
The Statement of the first hexagram
Well. A city may change,
but the well does not.
It does not lose, it does not gain.
In spite of all who come and go from a well,
it remains a well.
But if the rope cannot reach,
or if the well's vase is upended:_
misfortune.
but the well does not.
It does not lose, it does not gain.
In spite of all who come and go from a well,

But if the rope cannot reach,
or if the well's vase is upended:_
misfortune.
The changing lines
no changing lines
The Image of the first hexagram
Wood above water: well.
The noble one encourages
the people and lends them
assistance.
