Hexagram # 21

Hexagram 21. Shih Ho Biting Through SHIH HO

Unite by gnawing; here success
Comes by the proper use of legal stress.

Nip crime in the bud; lop_b toes, put feet in stocks;
Else - flesh and nose must next be bitten through.  
Quick, or dried flesh gives double work to do!  
Gnaw, gnaw, fake pledges ere the gate unlocks.  
Gnaw: gold rewards precaution firm and true.  
Or, last, the Gangue_c - the ears cut off, fate mocks.
