'Shadows'

He is stronger than steel
and moves faster than a whirlwind.

Sometimes he hides in mud.
Other times he transforms his shape
like an ever changing cloud.

Although his fighting spirit burns
like fire, his mind is as calm as
still water.

'Violation of the commandments'

Should Shinobi fail before
completing the mission, he will
disappear before the dawn and
vanish forever.

Keep this knowledge in your heart and mind.
