De sex linjerna
Linje 1

Linje 2
The second NINE, undivided, shows all occasion for repentance disappearing.
Linje 3
The third NINE, undivided, shows one who does not continuously maintain his virtue. There are those who will impute this to him as a disgrace. However firm he may be, there will be ground for regret.
