E whakaae ranei nga tangatao'konei, o ranga, o rare, kia pebia o ratou rangatira ouamata i raro iho i tenei tangata, ite Wherowhero? Kahore ra pea, ekore e whakaae. E ranging ko nga iwi o Waikato, no ratou hoki tcra rangatira, ko ratou arssko pea e whakaae atu ki a ia hei Kinoi Tuarua; ko te kore mea hei bapai i te mana o taua Kingi moi ka whaka-
