Translated from Richard Wilhelm's German (1924)
The Judgment
Grace has success.
In small matters, undertaking something is favorable.
The Image
A fire burns at the mountain's foot: the image of grace.
So the noble one goes about clarifying
day-to-day affairs,
but does not dare to decide disputes in the same way.
First line, nine
Lends grace to their toes, steps down from the carriage and walks.
Second line, six
Lends grace to their beard.
Third line, nine
Graceful and moist.
Lasting persistence brings good fortune.
Fourth line, six
Grace or simplicity?
As if flying, a white horse comes:
he is no raider;
he means to woo at the appointed time.
Fifth line, six
Grace in hills and gardens.
The bundle of silk is meager and small.
Shame, but in the end good fortune.
Top line, nine
Simple grace.
No fault.
