KO TE KAI-WHAKAMATAARA O NGA IWI ERUA.
"Na te tika i toa ai." Turei, Huri 3, 1848.
Ka mutu te korero a nga kai whakaatu katahi ka matika Te Wetini, ka korero kite tekau ma rua. Ka whakamaharatia eia te tekau ma rua kite mahi ka meatia e ratou, he raahi uaua rawa. Ma ratou e whakaae oati rawa ratou i patua ranei to ratou hoa tangata i mate maori ranei i te rua tekau ma rua o nga ra o Oketopa, a, ki mea i patua, na te herehere nei na tetahi atu ranei. He hara nui whakaharahara teuei hanga—te kohuru noa iho ite tangata — he mea whakahe i nga ture a te Atua, he mea whakaweriweri kite tangata; he mea ekore e whakamarietia kite tangata i patua amua atu, he hara ekore e taea te whakautu e te tangata, otiia he hara ekore e ngaro tonu atu e ea ano. E hara oti tenei i te inea whakaweriweri ko te kohuru marie a te tangata i tona hoa e noho noa iho ana ? E hara oti ite mea whakaweriweri te pananga i te tangata kahore i whai wa hei whakaaronga mana kite oranga mona ? K hara oti i te mea whakahe i nga tare a te Atua, ko te tango ki a ia ano te oranga mete matenga o te tangata? Na, kua waiho ma ratou e whakaae mehemea ko te herehere to tangata nana i kohuru a Rapata No, mehemea i penei ano te kohuru mete mea kua korcrelia i taua wa ano. Kia marama o ratou w hakaaro ki nga mea etoru nei ki mua; katahi, i mate ranei aTe No ite takiwa kua korerotia; ka rua, i kohurutia ranei e te tangata ; katoru, ko ia ko te herehere nei te kai whakatake i tana mate, nana ano ranei i patn. Kahore e ruarua te ngakau kite mea i mate ia i taua wa, i kitea hoki te tinana he mea kuru he mea wera ano i te ahi, i kilea ano i roto i te toenga o te rohe o tona whare. I peheatia ra i mate ai ? He mea ano ekore e tino mohiotia he mea pehea i mate ai te tangata, i mate noa iho, i kohurutia, nana ano ranei ia i whakamate. Mehemea i tino ngaua te tinana o Te No e te ahi kua ruarua pea te ngakau kite peheatanga i mate ai. Tena ko tenei, ekore rawa e ngaro te peheatanga, ekore e ngaro i nga tunga na te tangata ke ia i patu i te mea e ora ana ano ia, i mua ano hoki i te weranga i te ahi, na reira ia i mate ai. Kahore he ruaruatanga kite kohurutanga oTe No; tena koa, ko te herehere nei ko Pari te kai kohuru, kahore ranei ? Na, e toru nga tu korero e kitea ai te hara a te tangata ; ko te whakinga a te tangata hara; ko te whakapaenga a etahi; ko te tino kitenga a te mano i nga tohu ekore e taea te whakakahore. E tukua te tangata kite mate i runga ite tikanga e tetahi o enei etoru. Ko te korero tino tika, ko te huihuinga o enei e toru e tohutohu ana kite mea kotahi. Ko te mea ano tenei inaianei. E takoto nei te whakinga a Pani, he mea ata korero marie e ia ki te kaiwhakawa, i muri iho i tew hakatupatoranga ate kaiwhakawa e whakapaea ano ki aia taua whakinga. E mea ana ia, ko ia ano tetahi o nga kai kohuru. Ka rua :ko te korero a Makareta Riatana e mea ana, i te ra o te kohurutanga, na Pani i korero atu ki a \% mana e patu a Te No me tana nhanau riro ai nga moni i a ia. No te ouo o nga TO-'l.. o te ahiahi, i haere atu a Pani i tana w hare me te patiti mete peneti e mau ana ite ringaringa, a, no te tahi o nga haora, ka hoki mai ia kite whare, ka korero, kua kohurutia a Te No me tana whanau e ia. Ara, ko te ahua, me nga mahi a Pani i te takiwa i muri iho i te kohurutanga tae noa ki taua n hakamatauranga ki te patu ia ia ano. Kite whakinga a Pani, ara ki tona wahi ano, e pai ana ina te tekau ma rua e whakapono rawa ki taua whakinga, e whakarere ranei; e whakapono ranei ki tetahi wahi c wiiakateka ki tetahi. Oura kite whakakotahitanga o o ratou ngakau me whakaaro ratou ki nga korero a era atu kai whakaatu. Mehemea na etahi o nga ineatanga a nga kai whaatu, na te ahua ranei o te herehere i ahua-tika tana whakinga ko ia auo tetahi o nga kai kohuru ; na, ahakoa uhakarerea etahi o ana korero, kite whakapono ratou ko ia ano tetahi o nga kai kohuru, e tika ano te whakawa i a ia, nana ano i whaki.
