The Statement of the second hexagram

Gain by being upright.
Not eating at home brings fortune.

The Image of the first hexagram

Fire at the foot
of a mountain: adornment.

Heaven in the center of a

The noble one
frequently studies
the words and prophesies
of the past, and thereby
nourishes virtue.
