1. The lowest nine, shows its subject as a driver who drags back his wheel, or as a fox which has wet his tail. There will be no error.
2. The second six, shows its subject as a wife who has lost her carriage-screen. There is no occasion to go in pursuit of it. In seven days she will find it.
3. The third nine, suggests the case of Kao Zung, who attacked the Demon region, but was three years in subduing it. Small men should not be employed in such enterprises.
4. The fourth six, shows its subject with rags provided against any leak in his boat, and on his guard all day long.
5. The fifth nine, shows its subject as the neighbour in the east who slaughters an ox for his sacrifice; but this is not equal to the small spring sacrifice of the neighbour in the west, whose sincerity receives the blessing.
6. The topmost six, shows its subject with even his head immersed. The position is perilous.
