Manuscript is a collective name for texts?
and received a response of:
37 Family
The Statement of the first hexagram
A family benefits
from the women's purity.
The changing lines
The second line:
No place to follow. Gifts are within.
Pure fortune.
The fifth line:
The king withdraws to his family.
With no other help: fortune.
26 Great Restraint
The Statement of the second hexagram
Gain by being upright.
Not eating at home brings fortune.
Advance across the great river.
The Image of the first hexagram
Wind emerges from fire:
family.
The noble one has
substance in speech and
constancy in action.
The Image of the second hexagram
Heaven in the center of a
mountain: great restraint.
The noble one
frequently studies
the words and prophesies
of the past, and thereby
nourishes virtue.
