Heaven over wind. Represents unexpected encounters and being prepared for opportunity.

Line 1: It must be checked with a brake of bronze. Perseverance brings good fortune. If one lets it take its course, one experiences misfortune. Even a lean pig has it in him to rage around.
Line 2: There is a fish in the tank. No blame. Does not further guests.
Line 3: There is no skin on his thighs, and walking comes hard. If one is mindful of the danger, no great mistake is made.

Line 5: A melon covered with willow leaves. Hidden lines. Then it drops down to one from heaven.
Line 6: He comes to meet with his horns. Humiliation. No blame.
