Ancient Comments on the Image

— Duke of Zhou

Wind over the marsh, Genuine Integrity
the exemplary person accordingly deliberates legal cases to delay death.

Judgment

— King Wen of Zhou

Genuine Integrity: piglets and fish, auspicious; advantageous to cross the great river; advantage in steadfastness.

Moving Lines

— Duke of Zhou

1
Guardedness [is] auspicious; if another is present, no peace.
2
A calling crane in the shade; its young responds to it. I have a fine chalice; I will share it with you.
3
Meets an opponent; now drumming, now stopping; now weeping, now singing.
4
Moon nearly full, horse's mates gone, no blame.
5
Possessing trust, clinging-like, no blame.
6
A high-flying sound ascends to heaven; steadfastness [is] ominous.

Ancient Comments on the Moving Lines

— Confucius

1
First Nine, guardedness [is] auspicious; the will has not yet changed.
2
Its young responds to it; the heart's center desires.
3
Can drum or can stop—the position is not fitting.
4
Horse's mates being gone—severed from one's kind above.
5
Possessing trust, clinging-like; the position is correct and fitting.
6
A high-flying sound ascends to heaven—how can it endure?

Ancient Comments on the Judgment

— Confucius

Genuine Integrity: softness is within and firmness obtains the center. Joyous and compliant—this is trust; thus transforming states. "Piglets and fish, auspicious"—trust reaches even piglets and fish. "Advantageous to cross the great river"—riding a wooden boat [which is] hollow. Genuine Integrity with advantage in steadfastness—thus responding to Heaven.
