垂
有三垂,即
一。氣垂則氣降丹田,身穩如山。
二。兩肩下垂,則臂長而活,肩催肘前。
三。兩肘下垂,則兩肱自圓,能固兩脅。
是謂之三垂。

"Let Fall. The three things that one must let fall:
a) When the qi is suspended, the qi descends to the dantian, and the body is stable as a mountain.
b) When both shoulders hang down, the arms are long and lively, and the shoulders push the elbows to the front.
c) When both elbows hang down, then both arms are naturally round, and can solidify the ribs.
These are the three things that one must let fall."
From the book Xingyi Connected Fist (形意連環拳), by Lǐ Cúnyì (李存義), and from Xingyi Mother Fists (形意母拳) by Jiāng Róngqiáo (薑容樵) based on the translations by Joseph Crandall
