and received a response of:
19 Arrival
The Statement of the first hexagram
The arrival of the maker: everywhere,
giving and pure.
When the eighth moon comes,
there will be misfortune.
The changing lines
The first line:
All arrival:
pure gain.
The second line:
All arrival: fortune.
Nothing but gain.
The third line:
Luscious arrival,
but no place brings gain.
Once grieving passes, there is no fault.
15 Humility
The Statement of the second hexagram
Humility imbues.
The noble one gets completion.
The Image of the first hexagram
Earth by the lake: arrival.
The noble one
is inexhaustible
in teaching,
and boundlessly protects
the people.
The Image of the second hexagram
Mountains in the middle
of the earth: humility.
The wise person
takes from the ample
to add to the meager,
weighing and balancing
fairly.
