The mother scolds him in this fashion:
"What a coward to cry for a trifling pain! What will you do when your arm is cut off in battle?
What when you are called upon to commit hara-kiri?" We all know the pathetic fortitude of a famished little boy-prince of Sendai,
who in the drama is made to say to his little page, "
Seest thou those tiny sparrows in the nest,
how their yellow bills are opened wide, and now see!
there comes their mother with worms to feed them.

Anecdotes of fortitude and bravery abound in nursery tales,
though stories of this kind are not by any means the only method of early imbuing the spirit with daring and fearlessness.
Parents, with sternness sometimes verging on cruelty,
set their children to tasks that called forth all the pluck that was in them.
"Bears hurl their cubs down the gorge," they said.

Samurai's sons were let down to steep valleys of hardship,
and spurred to Sisyphus-like tasks.
Occasional deprivation of food or exposure to cold,
was considered a highly efficacious test for inuring them to endurance.

Children of tender age were sent among utter strangers with some message to deliver,
were made to rise before the sun, and before breakfast attend to their reading exercises,
walking to their teachers with bare feet in the cold of winter;
they frequently--once or twice a month,
as on the festival of a god of learning,--came together in small groups and passed the night without sleep,
in reading aloud by turns.

Pilgrimages to all sorts of uncanny places--to execution grounds,
to graveyards, to houses reputed of being haunted,
were favourite pastimes of the young. In the days when decapitation was public,
not only were small boys sent to witness the ghastly scene,
but they were made to visit alone the place in the darkness of night and there to leave a mark of their visit on the trunkless head.

Does this ultra-Spartan system of "drilling the nerves"
strike the modern pedagogist with horror and doubt
--doubt whether the tendency would not be brutalising,
nipping in the bud the tender emotions of the heart?

Let us see in another chapter what other concepts Bushido had of Valour.

The spiritual aspect of valour is evidenced by composure
--calm presence of mind. Tranquillity is courage in repose.
It is a statical manifestation of valour,
as daring deeds are a dynamical.

A truly brave man is ever serene;
he is never taken by surprise;
nothing ruffles the equanimity of his spirit.
In the heat of battle he remains cool;
in the midst of catastrophes he keeps level his mind.

Earthquakes do not shake him, he laughs at storms.
We admire him as truly great, who,
in the menacing presence of danger or death,
retains his self-possession; who, for instance,
can compose a poem under impending peril,
or hum a strain in the face of death.

Such indulgence betraying no tremor in the writing
or in the voice is taken as an infallible index of a large nature
--of what we call a capacious mind (yoyu), which,
far from being pressed or crowded,
has always room for something more.

It passes current among us as a piece of authentic history,
that as Ota Dokan,
the great builder of the castle of Tokyo,
was pierced through with a spear, his assassin,
knowing the poetical predilection of his victim,
accompanied his thrust with this couplet:

whereupon the expiring hero,
not one whit daunted by the mortal wound in his side,
added the lines:
