One's children endangered. There is talk.
No fault.
The fifth line:
Wild swans gradually reach the hill.
Three years: a wife cannot conceive.
At the end of twilight: success. Fortune.
22 Adornment
The Statement of the second hexagram
Adornment. Continue.
Slight gain in having a place to go.
The Image of the first hexagram
Wood on the mountain:
gradually.
The noble one dwells
in high moral character
and reforms
popular customs.
The Image of the second hexagram
Fire at the foot
of a mountain: adornment.
The noble one thereby
governs with clarity, and
does not dare
to decide lawsuits lightly.
