Plain text of XIV. The Ta Yu Hexagram
Ta Yu indicates that, (under the circumstances which it implies), there will be great progress and success.
1 In the first line, undivided, there is no approach to what is injurious, and there is no error. Let there be a realisation of the difficulty (and danger of the position), and there will be no error (to the end).
2 In the second line, undivided, we have a large waggon with its load. In whatever direction advance is made, there will be no error.
3 The third line, undivided, shows us a feudal prince presenting his offerings to the sovereign. A small man would be unequal (to such a duty).
4 The fourth line, undivided, shows its subject keeping his great resources under restraint. There will be no error.
5 The fifth line, divided, shows the sincerity of its subject reciprocated by that of all the others (represented in the hexagram). Let him display a proper majesty, and there will be good fortune.
6 The topmost line, undivided, shows its subject with help accorded to him from God. There will be good fortune, advantage in every respect.
