_The Commander_ stands for the virtues of wisdom, sincerity,
benevolence, courage and strictness.
The five cardinal virtues of the Chinese are (1) 仁 humanity or
benevolence; (2) 義 uprightness of mind; (3) 禮 self-respect,
self-control, or “proper feeling;” (4) 智 wisdom; (5) 信 sincerity
or good faith. Here 智 and 信 are put before 仁, and the two
military virtues of “courage” and “strictness” substituted for 義
and 禮.
