55 Plentiful

The Statement of the second hexagram

Plentiful. Progress.

The great king arrives. Do not grieve.

All is right as the midday sun.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

The lake overwhelms
the trees: great excess.
The noble one stands alone
without fear,
and can withdraw
from the world
without sorrow.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Thunder and lightning
come fully: plentiful.
The wise one decides
lawsuits and applies
punishments.
