The ridgepole sags.

Gain by having a place to go.

An old man takes a wife. Nothing but gain.
The fifth line:
Withered wood blooms with flowers.

An old woman takes a husband.

Neither fault nor praise.

30 Brilliance

The Statement of the second hexagram

Brilliance. Gainful purity.
Continue.
Tame the bull: fortune.
 
 

The Image of the first hexagram

The lake overwhelms
the trees: great excess.
The noble one stands alone
without fear,
and can withdraw
from the world
without sorrow.
 
 

The Image of the second hexagram

Brightness doubled:
brilliance. The great person
spreads his brilliance
to illuminate
all four directions.
