48, 49. What happens under 3ing requires to be changed, and hence it is followed by Ko (denoting change).
49-55. For changing the substance of things there is nothing equal to the caldron; and hence K6 is followed by Ting. For presiding over (that and all other) vessels, no one is equal to the eldest son, and hence Ting is followed by Kan. AdaAnconveys the idea of putting in motion. But things cannot be kept in motion for ever. The motion is stopped; and hence Xn is followed by K4n, which gives the idea of arresting or stopping. Things cannot be kept for ever in a state of repression, and hence Kan is followed by Kien, which gives the idea of (gradually) advancing. With advance there must be a certain point that is arrived at, and hence Kien is succeeded by Kwei Mei. When things thus find the proper point to which to come, they are sure to become great. Hence Kwei Mei is succeeded by Fang, which conveys the idea of being great.
55-57. He whose greatness reaches the utmost possibility, is sure to lose his dwelling; and hence Fang is succeeded by Lii (denoting travellers or strangers). We have in it the idea of strangers who have no place to receive them, and hence Lii is followed by Sin, which gives the idea of (penetrating and) entering.
57-59. One enters (on the pursuit of his object), and afterwards has pleasure in it; hence Siin is followed by Tui. Tui denotes pleasure and satisfaction. This pleasure and satisfaction (begins) afterwards to be dissipated, and hence Tui is followed by Hwan, which denotes separation and division.
59-62. A state of division cannot continue for ever, and therefore Hwan is followed by 3ieh. 3ieh (or the system of regulations) having been established, men believe in it, and hence it is followed by Kung Fd. When men have the belief which Kung Fd implies, they are sure to carry it into practice; and hence it is succeeded by Hsiao Kwo.
62-64. He that surpasses others is sure to remedy (evils that exist), and therefore Hsiao Kwo is succeeded by Ai 3i. But the succession of events cannot come to an end, and therefore Ki 3i is SECT, II. APPENDIX VI. 439 succeeded by Wei 31, with which (the hexagrams) come to a close.
The few sentences on this Appendix in the Introduction, pp. 54, 55, are sufficient. It shows the importance of the meaning of the name in the attempt to explain the lineal figures, and prepares us to expect on each one a brief enigmatical essay, which, it has been seen. is the nature of the Text. But the writer, whoever he was, is by no means careful always to follow that Text in the significance of the characters, as will appear in the few instances to which attention is called in the following notices. The treatise is too slight to require, or to justify, an exhibition of ail its inaccuracies.
1 But Xun does not denote filling up. It is the symbol of being in a state of distress and difficulty. The writer is thinking of the result of the interaction of heaven and earth as being to fill all between them with the various forms of living beings; and to represent that he gives the result of Aun, and not its meaning. He makes a blunder which might have been easily avoided, for he adds immediately that the character is descriptive of things on their first production.
2 It is difficult to follow the writer here. Hsii in the Text is the symbol of the idea of waiting. Does he mean that a provision of food and drink can only be made gradually? There is nothing in the character Hsii to awaken in the mind the idea of nourishment. Then the genesis of contention which is given is strange. The writer probably had in his mind the lines of the Shih, II, i, ‘The loss of kindly feeling oft From slightest things shall grow. Where all the fare is dry and spare, Resentments fierce may glow.’ But what is allowable, good even, in poetry, is out of place in this treatise.
8 Contention on a great scale will put all the population of a state in excitement and motion, and military measures of repression will be necessary. But the idea of the multitudes in Sze would seem to be simply that of number, and not that of a numerous host. In a feudal kingdom, however, all the able-bodied people might be required to join the army.
* Li, the name of the roth hexagram, is the symbol for a shoe, and the act of treading orwalking. It seems here to be derived from the homophonous If, the symbol of actsof ceremony. The identity of sound or name must be considered as accidental. A measured step would be one of the first ways in which the inward sense of propriety would manifest itself.
* By the subject of Ta YQ and AXhien we must understand the possessor of the kingdom,—the great man who in his greatness is yet distinguished by humility. He attracts followers.
° For the true meaning of Af and Lin, the names of hexagrams 18, Ig, see what is said in the notes on the Text of them.
" The same reference should be made to the notes on the Text of Hsien and many of the other hexagrams that follow.
APPENDIX VII.
Treatise on the Hexagrams taken promiscuously, according to the opposition or diversity of their meaning.
This last of the Appendixes is touched on very briefly in the concluding paragraph of the Introduction, p. 55. It is stated there to be in rhyme, and I have endeavoured to give a similar form to the following version of it. The rhymes and length of the lines in the original, however, are very irregular, and I found it impossible to reproduce that irregularity in English.
Strength in Ahien, weakness in Khwan we find.
Pi shows us joy, and Sze the anxious mind.
Lin gives, Kwan seeks;—such are the several themes Their different figures were to teach designed.
Kun manifests itself, yet keeps its place; ‘Mid darkness still, to light Mang sets its face.
Kan starts; Kan stops. In Sun and Yi are seen How fulness and decay their course begin.
Ta Kht keeps still, and waits the proper time.
Witt Wang sets forth how evil springs from crime.
