Hexagram 33 遯, Line 3
遯
Hexagram 33 · third line, undivided (nine)
係遯，有疾厲，畜臣妾吉。
The third line, undivided, shows one retiring but bound,—to his distress and peril. (If he were to deal with his binders as in) nourishing a servant or concubine, it would be fortunate for him.
James Legge (1882), public domain.
Small image (小象)
係遯之厲，有疾憊也。畜臣妾吉，不可大事也。
If only this line changes, hexagram 33 becomes hexagram 12.
