56. 旅 Lǚ, The Traveler
旅：小亨，旅貞吉。
彖曰：旅，小亨，柔得中乎外，而順乎剛，止而麗乎明，是以小亨，旅貞吉也。旅之時義大矣哉！
象曰：山上有火，旅；君子以明慎用刑，而不留獄。
初六：旅瑣瑣，斯其所取災。
象曰：旅瑣瑣，志窮災也。
六二：旅即次，懷其資，得童僕貞。
象曰：得童僕貞，終無尤也。
九三：旅焚其次，喪其童僕，貞厲。
象曰：旅焚其次，亦以傷矣。以旅與下，其義喪也。
九四：旅于處，得其資斧，我心不快。
象曰：旅于處，未得位也。得其資斧，心未快也。
六五：射雉一矢亡，終以譽命。
象曰：終以譽命，上逮也。
上九：鳥焚其巢，旅人先笑後號咷。喪牛于易，凶。
象曰：以旅在上，其義焚也。喪牛于易，終莫之聞也。
