E, auhea oukou, e ka poe noonoo, mai Hawaii a Niihau, ke ninau aku nei au ia oukou, pehea keia pule ia Maria? He pono anei? Aole anei ku i ka hoomana kii keia pule?

I ko'u kuhihewa ana, ea, aole mea nana e uwao imua o ke Akua i ka poe hewa, o Kristo wale no; Oia hookahi ke Kalahala; Oia ka puka o ka lani; oia ka hoku loa, ka puuhonua no ka poo hewa, ke alii o na anela, a me ke kokua no ka poe Kristiano, oia no ka! Maria kekahi puka o ka lani; o Maria ka! ka hoku loa, a me ka puuhonua ao ka poe hewa!! Owai o Maria? he wahine wale no, he ano kanaka wale no kona, aole ona ano Akua, aole mana, aole ike, aole akamai, aole noho ma na wahi a pau e lohe pule; a heaha ka pono o ka pule ia ia?

He hoomana kii ia i ko'u manao, no ka mea, ua hooakua aku lakou i ka mea i HANAIA, aole i ka MEA I HANA OLE IA. Eia kekahi olelo e akaka ai ka hewa o keia pule ia Maria, 1 Ioane 2:4, "Ina i lawehala kekahi, aia no ko kakou mea nana e uwao me ka Makua, o Iesu Kristo ka pono." Eia kekahi, No ka mea, hookahi no Akua, hookahi no mea uwao, iwaena o ke Akua, a me kanaka, o ke kanaka o Iesu Kristo.

Ehia mea nana e uwao imua o ke Akua? Hookahi mea nana e uwao. Owai ia? O Iesu Kristo. Pela ka ke Akua, aole anei? 'E nana i ke Keikihipa a ke Akua,' aole ia Maria. Aole i hooliloia o Maria i mea nana e uwao ia kakou; aole loa: O Kristo wale no. Na ka poe hookiekie wale no i malama a i hoolaha hoi i ka pule ia Maria.

Most blessed Virgin! more than Martyr in thy sufferings, and yet the comforter of those who are afflicted: thro' that unspeakable joy, wherewith thy soul was ravished at finding thy beloved Son in the Temple, amidst the Doctors, disputing with them, obtain of him for us, so to seek him, and find him in the Holy Catholic Church, as never to be separated from him. Amen. Ch. Guide to Heav. p. 348.
