Gainful purity.

Wild swans gradually reach the boulder.
Drinking and eating in bliss. Fortune.
The sixth line:
Wild swans gradually reach a plateau.

Fortune.
48 Well
The Statement of the second 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.
The Image of the first hexagram
Wood on the mountain:
gradually.
The noble one dwells
in high moral character
and reforms
popular customs.
The Image of the second hexagram
Wood above water: well.
The noble one encourages
the people and lends them
assistance.
