What will happen, if I continue with Mnesias after the 24th of March?
and received a response of:
4 Youth
The Statement of the first hexagram
A youth must be steadfast.
I do not seek the naive youth.
The naive youth seeks me.
At the first divination, I explain,
but after three times, it is irritating.
Annoyed, I explain no further.
Nevertheless, a gainful omen.

The changing lines
The first line:
While penalties are useful to illuminate
the naive youth, take off the fetters-
to go too far leads to sorrow.

The Image of the first hexagram
A spring gushes

The noble one nourishes virtue
with determination.
