12 Clogging
The Statement of the first hexagram
Clogging by wicked people.
Nothing to be gained,
even from a steadfast prince.
The great goes, the vile comes.
The changing lines
The second line:
Wrapped in flattery, the vile prosper.
Great people are clogged. Continue.
The third line:
Wrapped in shame.
44 Copulating
The Statement of the second hexagram
Copulating: the woman is powerful.
Do not marry such a woman.
The Image of the first hexagram
Heaven and earth
separate: clogging.
The noble one acts
with self-restraint
in the face
of punishing hardship,
and avoids glory or riches.
The Image of the second hexagram
Wind under heaven:
copulating.
The sovereign
issues commands
to the four quarters.
