"Shang indicates that (under its conditions) there will be great "
"progress and success. Seeking by (the qualities implied in it) to "
"meet with the great man, its subject need have no anxiety. Advance "
"to the south will be fortunate. "
" "
"1. The first line, divided, shows its subject advancing upwards with "
"the welcome (of those above him). There will be great good fortune. "
" "
"2. The second line, undivided, shows its subject with the sincerity "
"which will make even the (small) offerings of the vernal sacrifice "
"acceptable. There will be no error. "
" "
"3. The third line, undivided, shows its subject ascending upwards "
"(as into) an empty city. "
" "
"4. The fourth line, divided, shows its subject employed by the king to"
"present his offerings on mount Khi. There will be good fortune; there "
"will be no mistake. "
" "
"5. The fifth line, divided, shows its subject firmly correct, and "
"therefore enjoying good fortune. He ascends the stairs (with all due "
"ceremony). "
" "
"6. The sixth line, divided, shows its subject advancing blindly. "
"Advantage will be found in a ceaseless maintenance of firm "
"correctness. "

" Trees grow up from the earth, finding their way relentlessly, but with-"
" out undue haste, around all obstacles as they reach upwards. Likewise,"
" the great person progresses resolutely, step by step, along the right"
" path to achieve ultimate success."
