The Statement of the first hexagram
Following
what is great, smooth,
gainful, and pure.
No fault.
The changing lines
The third line:
Binding to the man
loses the child. Follow
and seeking will bring achievement.
Gain by dwelling stoutly.
The fourth line:
Follow and there will be capture-but this is a sign
of misfortune. Put your confidence in the Way
and you will understand.
Then, how can there be fault?
63 Already Across
The Statement of the second hexagram
Already across. Continue.

In the beginning, fortune.
At the end, disorder.
The Image of the first hexagram
Thunder over the middle

The noble one at sunset
goes into a house to rest.
The Image of the second hexagram
Water on top of fire:
already across. The wise
one prepares for calamity
by forethought.
