Te whakaaro o te Tangata Maori ki tera ao atu.

I tino whakapono ratou kite ao e noho ai te wairua tangata; i whakapono hoki kite ao, i muri iho o te whakaparehotanga o tenei ao e nokoia nei e talou. Ko Te Rainga te kainga e noho ai nga wairna o nga tangata Maori; kei Muriivlienua lera walii. Ka mate tc tangata ka rctc te wairua ki Te Reinga, ka lickc atu, maoa ake i tc moana, i nga motu e tit noa i Muriirhentia ra ; ko reira nolio pai ai nga wairua, e ai ta tc tangata Maori, lihara lanei tenei i tctihi o nga tikanga hei whakapumau mo te whakaaturanga mai nei, ki le oranga tonutanga ote Wairua? Nowhea ra tenei whakaaro? Kiliai ra nei te Kai-Hanga o te tangata i ako i tera mea ki nga tnuitvi katoa oleao ? Kihai ra nei le Atua Nui i tulii ilio tera whakaaro ki tongikau o tc tangata, te taea te muru e nga mea katoa o te ao ? Tera ke te awhio haere o te wairua o tc Initina o Marikena, e ai ta ifaulii i ana wain mo (era iwi. Kahore t pera te nwliio haere o tc rcienga wairua o tc tangata Maori. " Koe ara kite Po Ara whiwhi, ara roa. Aiva a rire, aiva a nui, Runga te wliatawhata iii, Kiiliu te wairua koe rau otaota l'elu'a ilio nga one tu iign Ko te rerenga ano raid." Peke kau te tangata Maori kite moana tc putanga ake he taenga ki tuna kainga pnmau. Ko o ratou whakaaronga kite rerenga ote wairua ki Murhvlienua, i rite ki nga mea o tenei ao. 1 wliakaaro etalii me whakawhiti i te awa, me whai o kia ora ai. No reira i tango ai etalii ite waka, mete lioe, hei kawe i te wairua ki tera talia, utaina ana te kcte kid Maori hei oranga kite ara. I wli»kaaio ratou, ma te wairua o tc waka, ka wliiii atu te wairua ole tangata, a, ma tc wairua o nga kumara, ka ora ite kai. Kiliai tenei rilenga i langoliia c nga iwi katoa o tenei wlienua te patunga o te taurckareka hei hoa haere mo te hunga mate. Kei nga tint motu atu tera ritenga; kei le pito ki raro o Ni'u Tircni nei. E mea ana ratou c okioki ana te wairua o te tangata ite haerenga kite reinga. E meinga ana hoki e titiro whakamuri ana kite hunga ora, a, ka waiala haero j " Ka rere au ko te hau o te Heinga, Kei maruatata au te whakamau, Ki to pae-taua-rai kite makau, Kite taua tireni Ka ata werohia ra kite raki taiaha; Ko au ware noa He kai e hoki au."
