Cho'^e'n, the arousing (shock, thunder)
Ta Yu, possession in great measure

The Judgement
Shock brings success.
Shock comes (oh, oh!)
Laughing words (ha, ha!)
The shock terrifies for a hundred miles,
And he does not let fall the sacrificial spoon and chalice.

The Image
Thunder repeated: the image of Shock.
Thus in fear and trembling
The superior man sets his life in order
And examines himself.

The Judment
Possession in Great Measure. Supreme success.

The Image
Fire in heaven above: The image of Possession in Great Measure. Thus the superior man curbs evil and furthers good, And thereby obeys the benevolent will of heaven.
