What to read
Two changing lines: read both line texts of the original hexagram; the upper one is the main one. (Rule set out by Zhu Xi in the Yixue qimeng.)
Hexagram 64 未濟, line 3
未濟，征凶，利涉大川。
The third line, divided, shows its subject, with (the state of things) not yet remedied, advancing on; which will lead to evil. But there will be advantage in (trying to) cross the great stream.
Hexagram 64 未濟, line 1
濡其尾，吝。
The first line, divided, shows its subject (like a fox) whose tail gets immersed. There will be occasion for regret.
The two hexagrams
Hexagram 64 未濟 — judgment
亨。小狐汔濟，濡其尾，无攸利。
Wei Zî intimates progress and success (in the circumstances which it implies). (We see) a young fox that has nearly crossed (the stream), when its tail gets immersed. There will be no advantage in any way.
Hexagram 14 大有 — judgment
元亨。
Tâ Yû indicates that, (under the circumstances which it implies), there will be great progress and success.
