I Ching
by Martin Burke

Innocence (The Unexpected)

creative heaven and arousing thunder

in innocence -success
he who does not have this
should not attempt great work

under heaven all is innocent
thus the king who is rich in virtue
fosters all things

                             *

innocence is good, is right

yet undertakings must be sought

misfortune will be undeserved
yet active

yet he who perseveres is without blame

illness, misfortune
these will pass

nothing advances
