Sincere Pitch Night Starlight

What value, a man's word?

Very utterance of his soul,
sound vibration of his heart.

True Heart, that is.

(bearing in mind the Nipponese concept of three hearts

One to show the Public
One to show in Private
One shown only to One).

How a man puts it all on the line when
he gives
his word.

Violate it and he is irreparably useless.

Stand by it and he can lose everything.

Everything but that which puts his value beyond
animal.

An ability to eschew all for Virtue.

'Tis a quality god-like in it's enactment.

This ain't pride or passion I'm talkin'.

It is Divinity sparkin' in the Dark.

My Word on it, Mate.
