Teh-Kwo (Greatness in Excess)
The marsh is above the trees.
The beam is weak;
it will collapse.
The superior man stands up,
alone and fearless.
He withdraws from the world without regret.
Success
if you take action
in any direction.

Khieh (Release)
The thunder rolls,
releasing a cloudburst.
The superior man stays on friendly ground.
He forgives errors
and deals gently with those who wrong him.
Auspicious
to act soon
if action is called for.
Auspicious
to return to your proper course
if no action is called for.
