Haste
On view in the courtyard of the king, the captives cry out. From a town comes a report of danger. This is not the time to regulate the Rong tribes. It is the time to go on a journey.
===   === There are no cries. There is misfortune in the end.
========= The mountain goat leaps, helter-skelter, down the middle of the road. No harm will come.
========= No flesh on his buttocks, his steps are hobbled. If he leads a sheep then problems will disappear. He will hear talk but is not reliable.
====x==== His strength is in his face. There will be misfortune. The nobleman heads out alone hurry-scurry. He meets with rain and gets wet. There is displeasure, but no harm.
========= Cries of alarm. Attacks come in the night. Fear not.
========= His strength is in stopping beforehand. Going will not bring victory. It will be harmful.
