what is the appropriate punishment for him?
and received a response of:
21 Biting
The Statement of the first hexagram
Biting. Penetrate.
Gain by prosecuting.
The changing lines
The sixth line:
How he is imprisoned in a cangue,
ears destroyed! Misfortune.
51 Thunder
The Statement of the second hexagram
Thunder everywhere.
Thunder comes frighteningly.
People laugh and exclaim.
Thunder terrifies for one hundred miles,

of sacrificial wine.
The Image of the first hexagram
Thunder and lightning:
biting. The ancient kings
defined penalties and
declared the laws.
The Image of the second hexagram
Continuous thunder
on thunder.
The noble one examines
his morals
in fear and dread.
