The Receptive brings about sublime success
Furthering through the perseverance of a mare.
If the superior one undertakes something and tries to lead,
this one goes astray;
But if one follows, one finds guidance.
It is favorable to find friends in the west and south,
To forego friends in the east and north.
Quiet perseverance brings good fortune.

The earth's condition is receptive devotion.
Thus the superior one who has breadth of character
Carries the outer world.
