Mahope o ke ku ana mai o ke kanaka e nana no kekahi ma nawa, huli aku la oia hele no kahi e, a hiu aku la me kekahi mau kanaka e aku elua e ku mai ana ma kekahi wahi mamao, a i kona hui ana aku me laua, i aku la me ka leo liilii loa:

 

"E, auhea olua. ua loaa ia`u kekahi hana kupono loa e  loaa nui mai ai ke dala ia kakou." "Pela? O, maikai wale!" wahi a ka pane a kekahi. "Ae, ua maopopo loa ia`u ia mea me ka maalahi pu o ka hana ana e loaa nui mai ai ke dala ia kakou." "Heaha ia hana au i manao i?" "Eia; e hele au a ma kela aoao mai o ka hale e noho mai la o ka poe makaikai, a mahope ae olua manao e hui ae me a`u ala ila hoike mai au ia olua i kahi e loaa nui ai na dala ia kakou." I ka holopono ana o nei manao mawaen o na kanaka, kaha aku la oia hele, a iaia i helel ae ai aia mau maluna ona na maka kilo o na makaikiu kahi i haka pono aku ai. "E MissMetti, ke ike nei u i ka hamuhamuia mai o ka`u maunu." i pane aku ai ka Makaikiu Dana. "Pela?' "aohe no ka hoi ou ike aku i ke kaalo ae a ka i`a nui." "Ae; o ka`u makau kekahi a`u e ike nei i ka haumia mai la."

 

"He mea maikai maoli no, e kuahine, ka loaa ana iho nei o kahi kupono a kaua e ike aku ai i kekahi o kela poe Ma noa au in a aole au i hooko i kau i kamailio mai ai, aole kaua e ike koke ana i kekahi poe o lakou." "Ae; pololei kela; hoomau aku ka kaua nana ana." "Ae, no ka mea ke ike nei au i ka waiwai o ka kaaa hele @ ana mai nei ianei." wahi a Dana.

 

He mau olelo keia mawaena iho o na makaikiu i kukaiia me ka lohe ole mai o kekahi poe, a i ka hala ana o kekahi ma nawa mahope mai ike aku la laua i na kanaka ekolu i ka hui @ ae, a kaukolo mai la ka lakou i ikeia aku, aia mau no @ na maka o na makaikiu maluna o lakou kahi i haka pono @ ai, me ka hoolalau ae nae i ka laua nana ana ma kahi e i  @ lakou manawa e nana mai ai ia laua nei.

 

"Ekolu mai ia nui a`u e ike aku nei i ke kaalo ae, e Metti," wahi a Dana o ka hawanawana ana mai." "Ae, ke ike aku nei i ke kaalo ae. E lou ana lakou i ka kaua makau lihi," wahi a Metti. "Pehea ana kaua e hana aku ai?" "O, mai ninau mai oe ia`u, ua maopopo ia oe kau mea e hana aku ai! Aole kanaka hookahi a`u i ike i hiki ke hoolala me ka holopono i ka mea e hana aku ai, elike me oe, nolaila, e hana aku oe elike me ka mea i kupono i kou makemake." "Ina pela e haalele kaua i keia wahi a e hele aku kaua i wahi okoa," wahi a Dana. "I maopopo ko lakou hahai ae mahope o kaua ea, oiai oia anei kou manao?" "Ae, oia. E nana aku hoi kaua in a lakou e hahai ae ana." "O ko kaua manna like aku la no ia," wahi a Metti. "Ihea kaua e hele aku ai?" "E haawi kaua i manawa no lakou e hahai ae ai. E holo kaua no kahaona ma kapa kahakai o ka Mokupuni Kone.

 

I ka holo ana o nei manao mawaena iho o na makaikiu aole laua i hoomaka koke i ka hele ana, he hana maalea no ia a laua, no ka mea, he hana nui ka laua e paani ana ia manawa.

 

Mahope iho o ia manawa pau aku la ka laua, ike ana i na kanaka ekolu; aohe o laua ike aku ke hakilo mau mai la no kela mua kanaka ia laua, no ka mea, ua lilo loa ko laua noo noo ia manawa ma ke kamailio ana mawaena iho o laua, a ua piha hauoli loa no hoi no na dala he nui i loaa mai la ia laua.

 

He kupanaha no keia laki i loaa ia laua, aohe o Dana i pili me ka manao e loaa mai ana kela mau dala, he pili wale no keia a laua ma ke ano hoao i mea no laua e ike aku ai i ka poe a laua e hoohalua ana, eia ka e laki i`o mai ana, he olelo kamailio mauia no nae ia e ka poe e pili ana me ka manao ole e eo mai ana ia lakou e lilo mai ana na dala a ka poe i manaoio maoli e eo ana ia lakou.

 

Oiai laua e hoomau ana i ka noho hoomaka hou ia mai la ka ohi ana i na lio no kekahi heihei hou, a hoea mai ana he keiki elele me na tikiki, a ia manawa i huki ae ai ka makaikiu wahine i kana buke bila dala no uku ana aku i na tikiki.

 

Ma keia heihei hope ana ua aka hou no ke eo i na opio, o  ka hele ia o kana buke e waiho ai i na bila dala a huake, i ka ua mea o ka piha i na dala pepa.

 

Ma keia eo hou ana o ka pili i na opio ua hoopiha loa ia aku na kanaka ekolu me na manao kuaki, a e haka mau mai ana ka lakou mau maka maluna o na makaikiu, a na makaikiu nae e ike ole aku ana i ka lakoiu la nana mai, me ka lakou mau mea e kukakuka mai ana no ka hoopoino ana i ko laua mau  ola.

 

"Olelo ae la ka kekahi o na kanaka ekolu i kona mau hoa: "Ea he kai hoee maoli keia! O ka hele ka hoi ia o ka maloo a ahuwale ke aa. Aole i kana mai a ka laki o kela wahi wa hine opio, nana aku no hoi kakou la, ua hele a huake kahi buke waiho bila dala ana, a o kakou hoi ua hele iho ia na pakeke a hakahaka. O nei nui dala pepa [ka hoi a`u o ka lawe ana mai nei a eia ka hoi e pau loa ana i ka lilo. Heaha ka kakou hana pono i mea e hoi hou mai ai kela mau dala

a kakou i pau loa aku nei i ka lilo?"

 

He olelo oiaio hoi ia, owau iho la kekahi i puapua a hole ke olohelohe i ke kula o Kanoenoe, me ka hiki ole ke manao iho e pili hou aku."

 

"Mai pili hou kakou i keia la." wahi a kekahi o lakou o ka  pane ana mai me kap iho kuaki
