The Zhouyi · King Wen order
The 64 hexagrams
Each hexagram has its own page: the Judgment, the Image and the six line texts in James Legge's 1882 translation, beside the Chinese original, with the Commentary on the Judgment and the Small Images from the Ten Wings, and the hexagram each changing line leads to. A hexagram is a mirror, not a command.
