赋云：
The ode says:


金赖土生，土厚而金遭埋没。
Metal relies on Earth to be engendered, when Earth is thick. metal will be buried.


木从水养，水盛而木必漂流。
Wood is nourished by Water, when Water is strong, wood would float and drift.


火炎土燥，则不能生物（如己日得午之类）。
When Fire is blazing, Earth is parched and cannot engender anything.


刚金不能生水（如庚日得戌之类）。
Tough metal cannot engender Water (like Geng day seeing Xu etc)


旺土见旺火，逢此必主眼疾痈疽热病。
Prosperous Earth meeting prosperous Fire, seeing this denotes eye disease, ulcers or fever.
(Trey: Fever - diseases that related to fever like typhoid fever, dengue fever or yellow fever etc)


粪土不能生金，燥金不能生水，绝水不能生木，遇此宜详看，不可一概印绶论。
Dung earth cannot engender Metal, parched metal cannot engender water, reposed water cannot engender wood, cases like this should be analyzed in detail, these should not all be analyzed as Seal.


若水得金生而逢秋，乃水清金白，秀丽堪夸，一水三金，号曰体全之象。
If water gets engendered by Metal and meets Autumn, then Water is clear and Metal is white, elegance and beauty worthy of high praises, one Water and three Metal, this is called the image of 'complete form'


火得木生而值春，为木秀火明，发焰红绿，见金则伤其木，灭火之焰。
Fire gets engendered by wood and is born in Spring, wood is elegant and fire is bright, glowing in red and green, seeing Metal would injure the wood, and extinguish the glow of the fire.


是金木二印，多者俱作吉论。
For metal and wood Seal, when there are many, they should be analyzed as auspicious.


若火印多者火燥土烈，水印多者水泛木浮，土印多者土重金埋，皆不为吉。
If Fire Seal is Abundant, Earth is cracked, if Water Seal is rampant, Wood floats, if Earth Seal is heavy, Metal is buried, all these are not auspicious.
