Chivalry is a flower no less indigenous to the soil of Japan than
its emblem, the cherry blossom; nor is it a dried-up specimen of an
antique virtue preserved in the herbarium of our history. It is
still a living object of power and beauty among us; and if it
assumes no tangible shape or form, it not the less scents the moral
atmosphere, and makes us aware that we are still under its potent
spell. The conditions of society which brought it forth and
nourished it have long disappeared; but as those far-off stars
which once were and are not, still continue to shed their rays upon
us, so the light of chivalry, which was a child of feudalism, still
illuminates our moral path, surviving its mother institution. It is
a pleasure to me to reflect upon this subject in the language of
Burke, who uttered the well-known touching eulogy over the
neglected bier of its European prototype.
