            The criteria to evaluate the runs against. It can be:
                -  a mapping of a criterion name to its description
                -  a single criterion name present in one of the default criteria
                -  a single `ConstitutionalPrinciple` instance
        prompt : Optional[BasePromptTemplate], default=None
            The prompt template to use for generating prompts. If not provided,
            a default prompt will be used.
        **kwargs : Any
            Additional keyword arguments to pass to the `LLMChain`
            constructor.

        Returns
        -------
        LabeledCriteriaEvalChain
            An instance of the `LabeledCriteriaEvalChain` class.
