          ----------     below     K'an   The Abysmal, Water

     The Judgement

          The Army. The army needs perseverance
          And a strong man.
          Good fortune without blame.

     The Image

          In the middle of the earth is water:
          The image of the Army.
          Thus the superior man increases his masses
          By generosity toward the people.

     The Lines

          Six at the beginning means:
          An army must set forth in proper order.
          If the order is not good, misfortune threatens.

          Six in the third place means:
          Perchance the army carries corpses in the wagon.
          Misfortune.


     11.  T'ai / Peace

          ----------     below     Ch'ien The Creative, Heaven
          ----------

     The Judgement

          Peace. The small departs,
          The great approaches.
          Good fortune. Success.

     The Image

          Heaven and earth unite: the image of Peace.
          Thus the ruler
          Divides and completes the course of heaven and earth;
          He furthers and regulates the gifts of heaven and earth,
          And so aids the people.
