Mamuli o keia mele a ua wahi moo la, i ike ai o Naneana ma, ua hanau io ia no ka ka laua hanai milimili a eehia hoi ma na papaku o na kai o Inia. A o oukou paha kekahi e na makamaka heluhelu e hoomaopopo iho ana i kahi i hanau ia ai o ka mea nona keia kaoo.
Nolaila, aohe a kakou kamailio ana i koe, aka, aohe hewa i ka mea hoopuka kaao ke olelo ae, ua hanai ia oia e kona mau makua e like me kana kauoha, a ua malamaia hoi oia me he kieki ponoi loa la na laua, a hiki i kona nui ana.
Ua lawa paha keia mau wahi hoakaka pokole ana no kona hanai ia ana, a e huli ae kakou a nana aku i ka hoomaka mua ana o na hana hoopahaohao a ua wahi Ali Hiba nei.
Aia hoi i kekahi la, kahea aku la oia i kona wahi luaui hanai, "E Nuredane e."
"Heaha ia?" wahi a kona wahi luaui makuakane i pane mai ai.
"Heaha mai hoi kau—I kahea aku nei hoi paha au ia oe, ua makemake au e mare i wahine na'u?"
"Ae, ua pono ia," wahi a kona luai, aka, e imi paha au i moo wahine e like me kou ano e kuu hanai."
"Aole pela e Nuredane, heaha ka waiwai o ia, ina paha e hoomare ana oe ia'u i ka moo, e hanau mai ana no ka hua mai ko maua puhaka aku he moo no, kai no hoi i wahine kanaka ka'u e mare ai, a i loaa mai hoi na keiki, he mau keiki kanaka."
"Kahaha! e kuu keiki—Pehea e hiki ai ke ae ia mai oe e ka poe na lakou na kaikamahine kupono e mare me oe, oiai, he kino ano e kou a ku i ka hoomaka'ukau? Ina paha he kino kanaka kou, aohe no la hoi he olelo ana. Aka hoi, o kena kino ou, aohe paha he wahine ae mai ke hele aku au e noi."

A nolaila, ke kauoha aku nei au ia oe, e hele oe a olelo aku i ke Alii Pookolu o ka aina kupua, he makemake au i ke kaikamahine aua i wahine na'u. Nolaila, e hele koke oe ano."
Me ka haalulu a me ka makau, ku ae la o Nuredane iluna, a me ka leo i piha i ka weliweli no ke Alii Pookolu, pane mai la oia: "Ea, e kuu keiki, ke hoouna mai nei oe i kou makua nei e hele i kahi o ke Alii nona ka ihiihi a me ka weli e makau ia nei e na kanaka a pau oiai oia he Alii nui o kona mana a me kona ike, a ina paha oia e lohe ana i keia noi, alaila, o ko'u hopena no ia. Nolaila, e kuu keiki, e hoouna mai oe i kou wahi luaui e kii aku i wahine nona ke kulana haahaa e like me ko'u nei."
"Aole! Aole!" wahi a ua wahi moo nei i pane ae ai me ka nui launa mai o ka leo, e hoohaalulu ana i kahi pupupu hale o lakou, a ua piha loa iho la o Nuredane i ka makau a me ka weliweli, oiai hoi o Sina maloko o ka ululaau e hoiliili wahie ana. A liuliu iki, pane hou aku la o Ali Hiba:
"A no i keia wa, e Nuredane, e hele koke oe i mua o ua Alii la me ka makau ole. A i kou hiki ana imua ona, e olelo aku oe penei:
Ma ka inoa o ke Alii Solomona, ke kauwa a ka Mea Hoano Loa, ke olelo aku nei au ia oe e laahia ke kino o ka elele. A ina ia e ninau mai ana i kou kou manao o ka hiki ana aku, e hai aku oe e like me ko'u makemake. A e ike no auanei oe i kana pane, aole ia he pane nou e make ai, aka, he olelo nau e hoihoi mai ai a hai mai ia'u. O hele, a e haalele i kou makau i kauhale nei."
