E hoa, Tena ra ko koe, tenei ano taku waakaro, mau pea e mea, kia taia ki roto ki tau pukapuka, kia rongo ai nnga tangata maori katoa; he wakaaro kuware ranei naku, tika ranei, otira, e pai ana kia tuhituhia; Na, koia tenei, te kuwaretanga o nga tangata maori ki o ratou turoro, ina hoki te rongo ai ratou kite kupu a te Rata kua rongo ahau ki etahi tangata i penei kite Turoro, na te Haterene taua turoro i wangai kite rongoa, a i mea mai ano ia, aua ra e turituri, tena, e turituri tonu ana ratou, i mea ano, hoki, aua ra e kawea atu te turoro ki te kainga maori, engari me waiho ki konei takoto ai, tena, nonahea i rongo ai nga tangata maori, ka kawea ano te turoro, a ora noa ia i mate i te makariri, i ki ano nga tangata maori, Kua marere! Na, E hoa, e mea ana ahau, he wakaro kuware tenei, e mohio koia nga tangata maori ki tenei mea, e orate tupapaku, e mate ranei ? Kahore! ekore ratou e mohio, kei te Atua ano te tino tikanga, otira, me he mea, he mate nui te mate o te turoro a e pai ana te Rata kia wangai a taua turoro ki tetahi rongoa kaha, a e nui haere te mate, kei ki nga tangata, he tohu ka marere te Wairua, Kahore! na te rongoa kaha ano e nui haere ai te mate, otira, he mea pai ano te rongoa kaha mo te tino mate nui o te tangata Tena, ko te mareretanga o te Wairua,
kei te Atua anake ano, koia ahau ka mea ai, lie mahi kuware tenei, te mahi a nga tangata maori, engari, me wakarongo tonu kite ritenga ate Rata, a Atua ano e mea, kia orate tupapaku i te rongoa, kia mate ranei.
