ʻOku finangalo e Tamai Hēvaní ke tau tokoni ki he niʻihi kehé. Naʻe hoko ʻeku faiako Palaimelí ko ha sīpinga maʻongoʻonga ʻo e ngāue tokoní. ‘I heʻemau omi ki he Palaimelí, naʻe haʻu maʻu pē ʻa Sisitā ʻAnitonieti mo ha foʻi keke sokoleti. Naʻá ku fehiʻa he keke sokoletí! Naʻe saiʻia ai e tokotaha kotoa. Ka naʻe ʻikai ke u teitei kai ia.
Naʻá ne fehuʻi mai ʻi ha ʻaho ʻe taha, “Ko e hā ʻoku ʻikai ke ke ʻahiʻahiʻi ai ha konga keké? Naʻe taʻo e foʻi keke ko ʻení ʻaki ha meʻa makehe.”
Naʻá ku loto lelei ke ʻahiʻahiʻi ia. Mateʻi mai pe naʻe hā? Naʻá ku saiʻia ai!
