In practice
The judgment
Right relationships, with everyone in their proper place and fully carrying out their role, will move things forward and make success last. Your words need to match your actions so they come across as genuine.
The poetry
The Household
The constancy of the woman is favorable.
The image
Wind comes out of fire: the household. So the noble person puts something real into their words and something steady into their conduct.
