Answer:

The phrase the samurai is enclosed in brackets because they were not part of the original quote.

Explanation:

In quotes, square brackets are used to enclose words that are added as they were not part of the original sentence. In this case, the addition of the phrase the samurai is aimed at clarrifying who they is.
