why did he go back?
and received a response of:
49 Reform
The Statement of the first hexagram
Reform: on one's own day,
confidence is won-
making, pervasive, gainful, and pure.
Regrets vanish.
The changing lines
The fifth line:
The great person changes like a tiger.
No need to divine: there is trust.
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
Fire in the middle of the
lake: reform. The noble one
orders the calendar
by the seasons.
The Image of the second hexagram
Thunder and lightning
come fully: plentiful.
The wise one decides
lawsuits and applies
punishments.
