Le Jugement
Dans (l'état dénoté par) Žhui, le roi se rendra à son temple ancestral. Il sera avantageux (aussi) de rencontrer le grand homme; et alors il y aura progrès et succès, bien que l'avantage doive venir d'une ferme droiture. L'usage de grandes victimes contribuera à la bonne fortune; et dans quelque direction que le mouvement soit fait, ce sera avantageux.
Les six traits
Trait 1
The first SIX, divided, shows its subject with a sincere desire (for union), but unable to carry it out, so that disorder is brought into the sphere of his union. If he cry out (for help to his proper correlate), all at once (his tears) will give place to smiles. He need not mind (the temporary difficulty); as he goes forward, there will be no error.
Trait 2
The second SIX, divided, shows its subject led forward (by his correlate). There will be good fortune, and freedom from error. There is entire sincerity, and in that case (even the small offerings of) the vernal sacrifice are acceptable.
Trait 3
The third SIX, divided, shows its subject striving after union and seeming to sigh, yet nowhere finding any advantage. If he go forward, he will not err, though there may be some small cause for regret.
Trait 4
The fourth NINE, undivided, shows its subject in such a state that, if he be greatly fortunate, he will receive no blame.
Trait 5
The fifth NINE, undivided, shows the union (of all) under its subject in the place of dignity. There will be no error. If any do not have confidence in him, let him see to it that (his virtue) be great, long-continued, and firmly correct, and all occasion for repentance will disappear.
Trait 6
The topmost SIX, divided, shows its subject sighing and weeping; but there will be no error.
