Coming to meet (44) signifies encounter.
The image
Underneath heaven is wind: the image of coming to meet. This is how the prince disseminates his commands and has them proclaimed to the four quarters of heaven.
The judgement
Coming to meet. The maiden is powerful. One should not marry such a maiden.Full text of Richard Wilhelm's 1924 translation by Cary F. Baynes
