33 Withdrawal
The Statement of the first hexagram
Withdrawal. Continue.
Small gains in persisting.
The changing lines
The first line:
Withdrawing at the tail of evil.
No use to have a place to go.
The second line:
Hold using yellow ox hide,
but do not declare victory.
The fourth line:
A fitting withdrawal.
For the wise one, fortune.
For the inferior one, evil.
9 Smallness Tames
The Statement of the second hexagram
Smallness tames. Persevere.
Dense clouds, no rain
at my western border.
The Image of the first hexagram
A mountain under heaven:
withdrawal.
The noble one keeps
distant from vile people,
not with hatred,
but with dignity.
The Image of the second hexagram
Wind moving high
in heaven: smallness tames.
The noble one acts
with restraint, culture,
and morals.
