A woman marries: fortune.
Gainful purity.

Wild swans gradually reach the stream bank.
One's children endangered. There is talk.
No fault.

Wild swans gradually reach the boulder.
Drinking and eating in bliss. Fortune.

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

Wood on the mountain:
gradually.
The noble one dwells
in high moral character
and reforms
popular customs.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Wind moving high
in heaven: smallness tames.
The noble one acts
with restraint, culture,
and morals.
