"The Hawaiian Romance Of Laieikawai"

"
Then Laielohelohe said to her husband, "Where are you, husband of my
childhood? What you have heard is true, and it is true that I have
fallen into sin with the lord of the land, not many times, only twice
have we sinned; but, my husband, it was not I who consented to defile my
body with our lord, but it was my guardian who permitted the sin; for on
the day when you went away, that very day our lord asked me to defile
myself; but I did not wish it, therefore I referred my refusal to him;
but on his return from above he asked Kapukaihaoa, and so we met twice;
and because I did not like it, I hid myself in the country people's
houses, and for the same reason have I left the seat appointed me, and
have sought you; and when I arrived, I found you with that woman.
Therefore we are square; I have nothing to complain of your you have
nothing to complain of me; therefore, leave this woman this very night."
Now his wife's words seemed right to her husband; but at Laielohelohe's
last request to separate them from their sinful companionship, then was
kindled the fire of Hinaikamalama's hot love for Kekalukaluokewa.
