Preponderance of the Great.
The ridgepole sags to the breaking point.
It furthers one to have somewhere to go.
Success.

The lake rises above the trees:
The image of Preponderance of the Great.
Thus the superior one, when one stands alone,
Is unconcerned,
And if one has to renounce the world,
One is undaunted.
