The Well 16象曰：'A well so muddy that men will not drink of it:'--this is indicated by the low position (of the line). 'An old well to which the birds do not come:'--it has been forsaken in the course of time. 彖曰：The Well. The town may be changed, But the well cannot be changed. It neither decreases nor increases. They come and go and draw from the well. If one gets down almost to the water And the rope does not go all the way, Or the jug breaks, it brings misfortune.
