liahu ano kupua keia ike ana, a no ia mea, waiho wale no iloko o
ka wahine kona manao, aia a halawai laua, alaila, hoike aku i kana mea e
ike nei no ka Aiwohikupua mau hana.

Ma keia holo ana a Aiwohikupua, mai Kaelehuluhulu aku, hiki mua lakou ma
Keaau, aka, ua nui no na la, a me na po o keia hele ana.

I ke awakea o kekahi la, hiki aku lakou ma Keaau, a pau na waa i ka
hooponopono, a me na ukana o lakou, ia wa no, hoolale koke ae ana ke
Alii i na kaikuahine, a me kona Kuhina e pii i uka o Paliuli; a ua
hooholo koke lakou ia manao o ke Alii.

Mamua o ko lakou pii ana i Paliuli, kauoha iho la o Aiwohikupua i na
hookele, a me na hoewaa, "Eia makou ke hele nei i ka makou huakai hele,
ka mea hoi a kuu manao i kau nui ai a halawai maka, e noho malie loa
oukou, aia no ka oukou mea malama o na waa; i kali oukou a i ao keia po,
a i po ka la apopo, alaila, ua waiwai makou; aka, i hoi kakahiaka mai
makou i ka la apopo, alaila, ua nele no ka'u mea i manao ai, alaila, o
Kauai ke alo, huli aku hoi." Oia ke kauoha a ke Alii.

A pau ke kauoha a ke Alii i na kanaka, pii aku la a like a like o ka po,
hiki lakou i Paliuli. Olelo aku la o Aiwohikupua i na kaikuahine, "O
Paliuli keia, eia ianei o Laieikawai, ko oukou kaikoeke, nolaila, imiia
ka oukou pono."

Alaila, lawe ae la o Aiwohikupua ia Mailehaiwale, i ka hanau mua o lakou
e like me ko lakou hanau ana. Ku iho la ma ka puka ponoi o ka hale o
Laieikawai, ia Mailehaiwale e ku la ma ka puka o ka Halealii, kuu aku
ana keia i ke ala, po oloko i ke ala, aia nae o Laieikawai me kona kahu
ua pauhiaia e ka hiamoe nui; aka, aole nae e hiki ke hiamoe i kela
manawa, no ka mea ua hoalaia e ke ala o Mailehaiwale.

Ia puoho ana ae o laua mai ka hiamoe, haohao ana laua nei i keia ala
launa ole; a no keia haohao, kahea aku la o Laieikawai me ka leo oluolu
i kona kupunawahine penei:

LAIEIKAWAI: "E Waka, e Waka--e."

WAKA: "E-o, heaha kau o ka po e ala nei?"

LAIEIKAWAI: "He ala, eia--la, he ala e wale no keia, he ala anuanu, he
ala huihui, eia la i ka houpo i ka manawa o maua."

WAKA: "Aole no he ala e, o Mailehaiwale aku la na, o na kaikuahine aala
o Aiwohikupua i kii mai la ia oe i wahine oe, a i wahine oe, a i kane
ia; o ke kane ia moeia."

LAIEIKAWAI: "Ka! aole au e moe ia ia."

A lohe aku la o Aiwohikupua i ka hoole ana mai a Laieikawai, no ka
makemake ole e lawe ia Aiwohikupua i kane mare, alaila, he mea e ka
hilahila, no ka mea, ua lohe maopopo aku la lakou nei i ka hoole ana
