Free Flow · line 6

上六：城復于隍，勿用師，自邑告命，貞吝。

The sixth line, divided, shows us the city wall returned into the moat. It is not the time to use the army. (The subject of the line) may, indeed, announce his orders to the people of his own city; but however correct and firm he may be, he will have cause for regret.

James Legge, 1882
