19 Arrival
The Statement of the first hexagram
The arrival of the maker: everywhere,
giving and pure.
When the eighth moon comes,
there will be misfortune.
The changing lines
The third line:
Luscious arrival,
but no place brings gain.
Once grieving passes, there is no fault.
The fifth line:
Knowledge arrives.
The noble one is proper.
Fortune.
The sixth line:
Sincere arrival.
Gain without fault.
9 Smallness Tames
The Statement of the second hexagram
Smallness tames. Persevere.
Dense clouds, no rain
at my western border.
The Image of the first hexagram
Earth by the lake: arrival.
The noble one
is inexhaustible
in teaching,
and boundlessly protects
the people.
The Image of the second hexagram
Wind moving high
in heaven: smallness tames.
The noble one acts
with restraint, culture,
and morals.
