KO TE KAI-MATAARA O NGA IWI ERUA.
"Na te tika i toa ai." Tairei, Hurai 27, 1848.
He Korero mo te tiaki KAU, mo te hanga PATA, TIIHI. Heoi auo te mea pai o nga kuri rarata katoa, he Kau. He inea pai whakaharahara te miraka o te kau ma nga tamariki, a kahore he kino o tenei mea o te miraka, he inea pai kia kainga noatia. Ka hanga te miraka hei Pata hei Tiihi. Ko taku tikanga tenei mo te tiaki kau, kia tupu ai te pai o te kau, a ko te ritenga pai tenei mote hanga pata, tiihi ka korerotia atu nei ki a koutou. Ite tuatahi, rapua he kau pai. Ko nga tohu hoki enei ote hunga mohio kite titiro kau. — Kia tatahi nga tarings pihi; kia rahirahi te pane mete kaki hoki, a kia nui te urna, kia whai kiko. Kia whamii te tuara, kia nui hoki tc kopu, kia tautau ki raro. Kia nui hoki te u, kia whaitetere, kaua te mea matu nui; kia tu hoki nga unauwa o te u ; kiatatu hoki te uki t«a ki nga huwha; kia roa nga matainata o nga u, kia nui hoki. Kia nui huki te kumu, kia whai kiko. Kia roa te hiorc, kia ngawari. Kei te ahiia nui ote tinana te ritenga mo nga waewae. Kia polo hoki nga ponapona. Kia pai hoki te kau, kia kaua te riri, te tutu. Ki ta matontitiro he kau maia te kau huruhuru mangii, ekoie e raatemate. — Kite kanapa te huranum, mete tnoi ano ote kau, he tohu pai tenei, e kitea te kau ora, kahore he mate. Kaua e hokoa tc kau kua noho ite whenua momona, whai tartilprn, kia kawea atu kite koraha kai ai. Ko taku tenei—engari hokoa te kau tuoi. Ko nga kau pai raia ko nga mea c noho ana kite whenua pai, otira ka kawea kite wahi kino, ka mate. E ora ana ano te ,kau iti, kaha, kite wahi kihai nui te kai, a e nui haere taua kau, tena ko te kau nui, ka kawea kite wahi kino noho ai, ka tuoi haere, ka ■ mate, aka kore noa iho te waiu. Ka kino te whenua e noho ai te kau, ahakoa he kainga rahi, ekore ano e nui rawa te waiu, ma te huihui ia i te waiu o nga kau maha e nui ai.— Ahakoa kino te kau, pai ranei, kia nui tonu te kai; kite mea ekore e nui te kai, ekore ano e nui te waiu. Ka whakaaturia atu eahau amua te tikanga mo te purapara tarutaru, mo te whakato hoki. Heoi ano te mea e korerotia e ahau inaianei, ko tenei, kia hou te kai ma te kau, kia mokuku hoki, kaua hei te mea maroke anake, kei tupu te matu, a ekore e whai waiu. Kite mea e nui ana te kai, a e tiakina paitia ana te kau kotahi, e whitu nga pauna fata e riro raai i a ia i te wiki kotahi. — Na, whakarongo mai; kotahi hereni e iwa kapa nga utu mo te pauna pata kotahi ki Akarana; ara, kite whangainga a koutou kau, ki te atawhaitia, kite whakatetea paitia; kite horoia tonutia hoki nga tapu waiu me nga ri/d pata —kotahi tekau ma rua nga hereni, e torn nga kapa e whiwhi ai koutou mo ia kau, mo ia kau i nga wiki katoa. Ko te mea nui tenei ko te tnpato kia pai te hanga i te pata, kia ma. Kite kahore e pai te hanga, kite kore hoki e tupatoria kia ma nga mea katoa, ekore e nui •te pata. Kua mohio ahau ki etahi kai hanga pata kihai i riro mai ki a ratou te hawlie o nga pauna ewhitu, a ehara ite kino o te kau, kaore he whakaaro kore no ratou ki to ratou miraka. Ahakoa e rima anake nga hereni e riro mai ki a koutou i te wiki kotahi, kei aha ? kia tohe tonu ra. Ka mea atu au ki a koutou, e kore e taro, ka hari koutou, ka nui te laoni mete taonga auo hoki ki a koutou.
