Classical Interpretation
The gentle (57) signifies to crouch.
The image
Winds following each other: the image of the gently penetrating. Thus the superior man spread his commandments and does his undertakings.
The judgement
The gentle. Success through what is small. It furthers one to have somewhere to go. It furthers one to see the great man.Full text of Richard Wilhelm's 1924 translation by Cary F. Baynes
