The line, with Legge
Line statement 爻辭
豐其屋,蔀其家,窺其戶,闃其无人,三歲不觌,凶。
The topmost line, divided, shows its subject with his house made large, but only serving as a screen to his household. When he looks at his door, it is still, and there is nobody about it. For three years no one is to be seen. There will be evil. (Legge, 1882)
The Image 小象
豐其屋,天際翔也。窺其戶,闃其无人,自藏也。
