The Judgment
Great Exceeding — the ridgepole sags; it furthers to have somewhere to go.
The Six Moving Lines
Six at the beginning A mat of white rush is spread under things; no blame. 初六：藉用白茅，无咎。 Nine in the second place A dry poplar sprouts at the root; an older man takes a young wife; everything furthers. 九二：枯杨生稊，老夫得其女妻，无不利。 Nine in the third place The ridgepole sags to the breaking point; misfortune. 九三：栋桡，凶。 Nine in the fourth place The ridgepole is braced; good fortune; if there are ulterior motives, humiliation. 九四：栋隆，吉。有它吝。 Nine in the fifth place A withered poplar puts forth flowers; an older woman takes a young husband; no blame, no praise. 九五：枯杨生华，老妇得其士夫，无咎无誉。 Six at the top One must go through the water; it goes over one's head; misfortune, but no blame. 上六：过涉灭顶，凶，无咎。
