Changing lines

Line 5
The fifth line, dynamic, shows the union of all under its subject in the place of dignity. There will be no error.

The present judgment

When forces are gathering, the King goes to his ancestral temple. For successful progress, maintain firm correctness and see the great man. A large sacrifice brings good fortune, proceed toward your destination.

The later judgment

Enthusiasm indicates that feudal princes may be set up and the army advantageously mobilized.
