NGA KAI-MAHI MO TE WAIRUA.
Tena pea e mahara o matou hoa Maori, i te wahi i haerere ai te Kai-whakaora i tenai ao, hei 'kaikauwhau i te tikanga' mihi ana tona wai, rua ki nga mano e haere kau ana, ano he hipi kahore he Kai-tiaki; a, ka inea ki eua akonga"Ko te haubakenga e nui ana, ko nga kai-mahi e ruarua ana." Ano te ahua ke o te Whakapono i tenei takiwa ! Ko nga rau me nga mano o nga Kai-mahi e haerere ana ki nga whenua katoa o te ao, man ana ki o ratou ringa te rongo pai mau tonu, a, ki enei topito o te ao kua tae raai nga karere o te pono,takitekau kit 3 tauanga; no konei i tika ai te kupu ki nga tangata o Nui Tireni, "Ko te iwi i haerere i roto i te pouritanga, kua kite i ke maramatanga nui ; ko ratou e noho ana ite whenua ote atarangi o te mate kua tau ki runga ki a ratou te maramatanjja." 1 roto i to tatou taone, me nga wahi tutata, ewhitu nga Hahi, tino ngahuru nga whare karakia. I tera nupepa a matou kua taia i puta ano te kupu mo enei mea, otira, na te hunga u hoa mai, no te whakaritenga o konei ake, kua tapoko ano etahi kai-mahi kite mara ote Atua. Kahore e tea atu e matou nga pukapuka tauanga o nga kai-mahi o nga Hahi katoa ; otira e mea ana matou, L'otahi ano Habi, ko nga Witcriana, e
psinui ana i nga ingoa o te hunga mahi i nga mea tapu,- a, i te tirohanga Id to ratou pukapuka panui, erua te kau ma toru o nga kai-kauwhau i wliakahuatia. I roto i enei rangatira e hari ana matou i te kitenga ai lie reo Maori ctahi, a, mo konei i whakaaroa ai ko te pai o nga tangata Maori haere taone, e nui ake, i te mahinga c enei tangata. Kahore ianei e whakaputa kupu te tangata mo te kino kore o te iwi noho taone, he nui ano tena j otira kiamea atu matou ki nga kai horero, ko to ratou tikanga mo to whakawakanga o te kai-Whakawa o te rangi, ekore e aha i te maha, i te torutoru ra nei o nga kai mahi, no te mea e ki ana te tuhitnhi.—"Ko ia e matau ana kite pai, a, ekore e mahia, ka patua ia ki nga whiu maha."
