mountain stream). He will (suffer) the small (injury of) being spoken

third NINE, undivided, shows its subject in the mud (close by the stream).
He thereby invites the approach of injury.

fourth six, divided, shows its subject waiting in (the place of) blood.
But he will get out of the cavern.
5. The
fifth NINE, undivided, shows its subject waiting amidst the appliances
of a feast. Through his firmness and correctness there will be good
