leula and Kahalaomapuana rested upon the bird's wings and it
flew and came to Awakea, the Noonday, the one who opens the door of the
sun where Kaonohiokala lived.

At the time they arrived, the entrance to the chief's house was blocked
by thunderclouds.

Then Laukieleula ordered Noonday, "Open the way to the chief's place!"

Then Noonday put forth her heat and the clouds melted before her; lo!
the chief appeared sleeping right in the eye of the sun in the fire of
its intensest heat, so he was named after this custom The Eye of the
Sun.

Then Laukieleula seized hold of one of the sun's rays and held it. Then
the chief awoke.

When Kohalaomapuana looked upon her brother his eyes were like lightning
and his skin all over his body was like the heat, of the furnace where
iron is melted.

Laukieleula cried out, "O my heavenly one, here is your sister,
Kahalaomapuana, the one you love best, here she is come to seek you."

When Kaonohiokala heard he awoke from sleep and signed with his eyes to

Again the brother asked, "What is your journey for?"

Then she told him the same thing she had told the mother.

When the chief heard these things, he turned to their mother and asked,
"Laukieleula, do you consent to my going to get the one whom she speaks
of for my wife?"

"I have already given you, as she requested me; if anyone else had
brought her to get you, if she had not come to us two, she might have
stayed below; grant your little sister's request, for you first opened
the pathway, she closed it; no one came before, none after her." Thus
the mother.

After this answer Kaonohiokala asked further about her sisters and her
brother.

Then said Kahalaomapuana, "My brother has not done right; he has opposed
our living with this woman whom I am come to get you f
