The line, with Legge
Line statement 爻辭
良馬逐,利艱貞,吉。日閑輿衛,利有攸往。
The third line, undivided, shows its subject urging his way with good horses. It will be advantageous for him to realise the difficulty (of his course), and to be firm and correct, exercising himself daily in his charioteering and methods of defence; then there will be advantage in whatever direction he may advance. (Legge, 1882)
