A no keia olelo a Kauakahialii imua o na'lii, ua hookuiia mai ko
Aiwohikupua kino okoa e ka iini nui, me ka ninau aku, "Owai ka inoa oia
wahine?"
Haiia aku la oia o Laieikawai; a no ka iini nui o Aiwohikupua i keia mea
a Kauakahialii e olelo nei, manao iho la ia e kii i wahine mare nana,
aka, ua haohao o Aiwohikupua no keia wahine. Nolaila, hai aku oia i kana
olelo imua o Kauakahialii, "Ke haohao nei wau i keia wahine, no ka mea,
owau ka mea nana i kaapuni keia mau mokupuni, aole wau i ike i kekahi
wahine e kau mai iluna o ka eheu o na manu; me he mea la no kukulu o
Tahiti mai ia wahine, noloko o Moaulanuiakea."
No ka manao o Aiwohikupua no Moaulanuiakea, o Laieikawai, oia kona mea i
manao ai e kii i wahine nana. No ke mea, manua aku o kona lohe ana i
keia mau mea, ua olelo paa o Aiwohikupua, aole e lawe i kekahi wahine o
keia mau mokupuni i wahine mare nana; ua olelo oia, aia kana wahine
makemake noloko o Moaulanuiakea.
A pau ke kamailio ana a na'lii no keia mau mea, a me ka walea ana e like
me ka mea mau o ka puka malihini ana. A mahope koke iho oia mau la, lawe
ae la o Aiwohikupua i kahi o Kauakahialii, i kanaka lawelawe imua o kona
alo, me ka manao o Aiwohikupua o kela wahi kanaka ka mea e loaa ai ko ke
Alii makemake.
