ʻOku ou ongoʻi ʻoku fakalakalaka e Kāingalotu ʻo e Siasí; ʻoku nau ako fakaʻatamai. ʻOku tau kaka pē ke toe māʻolunga ange. ʻOku tau fakalakalaka ki ha tuʻunga mo ha feituʻu ʻoku māʻolunga angé pea ʻoku tau ako ai he ʻikai lava ʻe he poto ʻo e māmaní mo hono ngaahi lavameʻá mo hono ngaahi tokāteline loí mo e tefitoʻi moʻoní, ʻo uesia ʻa e Kāingalotu ʻo e Siasí, he ʻoku nau mahulu hake kinautolu ʻi he ngaahi fakakaukau mo e ʻilo foʻou ʻa e tangatá ʻo nau fakalakalaka ʻi he ngaahi meʻa moʻoni ʻokú ne ueʻi hake ʻa e fakakaukau, hakeakiʻi ʻa e mahinó pea nau fokotuʻu maʻu ange kinautolu ʻi he ngaahi tefitoʻi moʻoni totonu ʻo e moʻuí mo e nāunaú. ʻOku fonu hotau lotó ʻi he ngaahi moʻoni ko ʻení pea heʻikai ke tau lava ʻo ʻiloʻi ʻa e ʻaho pe houa kuo fakatupulaki ai ʻetau tuí, ka ʻi hono fakafoki ʻetau manatú ki he uike, māhina pe taʻu kuo ʻosí, ʻoku tau ongoʻi ai kuo fakatupulaki ʻetau tuí mo ʻetau ʻilo ki he tui mo e mālohi ʻo e ʻOtuá; ʻoku tau ʻiloʻi kuo tau toe ofi ange ki hotau ʻOtuá pea tau ongoʻi ʻoku tau takaua mo e ʻOtua ko ʻetau Tamaí.¹⁰ [Vakai ki he fokotuʻu fika 3 ʻi he peesi 75.]

Kuo pau ke ako e tangata kotoa pē ke ne ngāueʻi ʻene ʻilo pē ʻaʻaná; kuo pau ke ʻoua te ne fakafalala ki hono kaungāʻapí; kuo pau ke ne fakafalala taha pē ki hono ʻOtuá. ʻOku makatuʻunga ʻiate ia pē ʻa ʻene ikunaʻi e faingataʻá mo e meʻa ʻokú ne fakafeʻatungiaʻi hono hala ʻo e fakalakalaká. ʻE lava ke ʻilo lahi ange ha tangata ʻo fakafou he ngaahi ngāue ʻa e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoní pea ke ne ofi ki he ʻOtuá mo fakatupulaki ʻene tuí mo ʻene ʻatamai leleí.¹¹

Naʻe talaʻofa ange ʻe he ʻEikí ʻa e meʻafoaki ke ne liliu e ngaahi lekooti fakakuonga muʻá. Hangē ko e tokolahi ʻo kitautolu he ʻahó ni, naʻá ne maʻu hala ki hono fakaʻaongaʻi ʻo e meʻafoaki ko ʻení. Naʻá ne fakakaukau ko e meʻa pē naʻe fie maʻu ke ne fai fekauʻaki mo e meʻafoaki ko ʻeni kuo talaʻofa ange ʻe he ʻOtuá, ko ʻene tuku pē nofonoa pē hono ʻatamaí taʻe-fai ha ngāue, kae ʻoua ke toki ngāue ʻiate ia pē. Ka ʻi he taimi naʻe fokotuʻu ai ʻa e ʻū lekooti ko ʻení, naʻe ʻikai ha ʻilo ia ʻe fakahoko ange, naʻe kei fakamaʻu pē kinautolu ia, pea ʻikai hoko mai kiate ia ʻa e mālohi ke liliu leá.
