"(Li suggests the idea of) one treading on the tail of a tiger, "
"which does not bite him. There will be progress and success. "
" "
"1. The first line, undivided, shows its subject treading his "
"accustomed path. If he go forward, there will be no error."
" "
"2. The second line, undivided shows its subject treading the path "
"that is level and easy;-a quiet and solitary man, to whom, if he "
"be firm and correct, there will be good fortune. "
" "
"3. The third line, divided, shows a one-eyed man (who thinks he) can "
"see; a lame man (who thinks he) can walk well; one who treads on the "
"tail of a tiger and is bitten. (All this indicates) ill fortune. "
"We have a (mere) bravo acting the part of a great ruler. "
" "
"4. The fourth line, undivided, shows its subject treading on the tail "
"of a tiger. He becomes full of apprehensive caution, and in the end "
"there will be good fortune. "
" "
"5. The fifth line, undivided, shows the resolute tread of its subject. "
"Though he be firm and correct, there will be peril. "
" "
"6. The sixth line, undivided, tells us to look at (the whole course) "
"that is trodden, and examine the presage which that gives. If it be "
"complete and without failure, there will be great good fortune. "
"-------------------------------------------------------------"
" Heaven, by its very nature, is more exhalted than a lake. "
" Likewise, with humans, there are differences between people. A"
" system in which positions of authority correspond to inner worth"
" will be accepted but an unfair system produces strife."
