Line 3 of hexagram 2
In practice
What you do with perseverance and without showing off will be appreciated and recognized.
The poetry
Holding its brightness within; it can stay constant. If it serves in the king's affairs, no achievement of its own, but a good end.
六三：含章，可貞。或從王事，无成有終。
象曰：含章可貞，以時發也。或從王事，知光大也。
