dankodes * I found the best option for the weekly reminder emails, via Gmail. The external service options are more involved than our purposes require. Does anyone know anything about how to arrange an Apps Script? Basically all it has to do is tell ten people, on Saturdays, to come and get their juice/poems.
Until someone knows what to do there, I'll send out manual messages weekly. If you'd like to receive these and are not getting them, please let me know.
* If you haven't read it yet, chapter one, on tetrasyllabic shi poetry, in How to Read Chinese Poetry is hugely useful for the Book of Odes, imo.
* Remember you can also look at How to Read Chinese Poetry in Context.
* IF YOU HAVE FRIENDS WHO MIGHT LIKE TO JOIN or have other ideas, please let me know on this post.
* Every week I search the poems' English results to see if I can find any scholarship or neat bits and pop the results in Resources. Here is this week's collection.
**NEXT BATCH JUNE 7.**

Re: 256. 抑 - Yi
Baike's vernacular for "What is most powerful is the being the man" is "With the virtuous man, the country is full of power"
I think the sweeping is just tidiness / good habits? Based on context? Baike says nothing more about it.
The young ram is glossed as a lamb without horns, so maybe something like wasting effort on unnecessary / useless things?
Baike's vernacular for "And he yields to them the practice of docile virtue." is "immediately put into practice"
Bake's vernacular for "If people are not self-sufficient,Who comes [only] to a late maturity after early instruction?" is "Despite people's shortcomings, who is early intelligent yet late success/complete" [I'm not sure I understand this one either...]
