TAI-A-PANIWHANIWHA.
Kua hurihia a Kawhetana, he taone nui no Amerika, e 30,000 nga tangata, e te moana, e te tai a Paniwhaniwha. Ko runga ite moutere te tunga o tana taone, otira e ono macro rawa te haerenga o te tai Id te tuawhenua. E 5000 nga tangata i mate rawa, e 5000 i ora ake, 10,000 kei te noho kore whare kore kai, e 4000 nga whare i tino pakaru, e warn nga tima nunui i pakaru, hui katoa nga moni i ngaro e I te nui rawa o te tupapaku kihai i taea te nehu, katahi ka tahuna etahi ki nga rakau ano o nga whare pakaru, 1100 i whiua ki te moana punga ai. He nui nga tupapaku kahore ano kia pae ki uta. He maha o nga tangata i ora ake i porangi i te mate wai. Te mahi whakarihariha, te mahi tutua na nga tangata tahae, na nga kai pahua. Hei nga po ka haere kite tangotango i nga kakahu 0 nga tupapaku kite kimi moni taonga, kite unuunu i nga mowhiti o nga wahine mate. 1 whakahaua nga hoia me nga pirihimana fti te tiaki. He mangumangu te iwi kino rawa, e 90 or rtou i puhia e nga pirihimana. Kanui rawa te wetiweti, ka kitea te kinonga o te ngakau o te tangata, o te tangata i hangaia nei ete Atua kia rite ki aia ano te ahua. E hia ra nga Maori e penei nga whakaaro ? Ki ta matou whakaaro kore rawa kia kotahi, he iwi hopohopo te Maori kite tangata mate, he iwi whakaaro rangatira. “Ko te aroha ki te moni te take o nga kino katoa.”
