The Judgment
Grace has success. In small matters it is favorable to undertake something.
The Image
Fire at the foot of the mountain: the image of Grace. Thus does the superior person proceed when clearing up current affairs. But dares not decide controversial issues in this way.

Initial
Graces the toes, leaves the carriage, and walks.
2
Lends grace to the beard on the chin.
3
Graceful and moist. Constant perseverance brings good fortune.
4
Grace or simplicity? A white horse comes as if on wings. Not a robber but a wooer.

Grace in hills and gardens. The roll of silk is meager and small. Humiliation, but in the end good fortune.
Top
Simple grace. No blame.
