     The Judgement
          Waiting. If you are sincere,
          You have light and success.
          Perseverance brings good fortune.
          It furthers one to cross the great water.
     The Image
          Clouds rise up to heaven:
          The image of Waiting.
          Thus the superior man eats and drinks,
          Is joyous and of good cheer.
     The Lines
          Waiting in the mud
          Brings about the arrival of the enemy.

     The Judgement
          Limitation. Success.
          Galling limitation must not be persevered in.
     The Image
          Water over lake: the image of Limitation.
          Thus the superior man
          Creates number and measure,
          And examines the nature of virtue and correct conduct.
 


History is the most important thing. Except for fucking. But the two are intimately connected. Through time.
