TE TOA TAKITINI.
Whaka eke noa a Tuhotoariki i te pa o Te Whareupoko i Pari-Waiehu, kei te huaraki atu ki Waimarama, kaore hoki i taea. E hoki ana te taua ka peke mai a Koromahue te tama, he toa hoki ia no te pa, katahi ka karanga atu “Tuhotoariki tu mai kia tukutuku-ma-takitahi taua.” Ka karanga atu a Tuhotoariki “Ehara taku toa i te toa taki-tahi, engari he toa taki-tini taku toa.” Ka hoki te taua a te kaumatua ra. Katahi ka whakaemia he taua ano ma ana, engari he toa anake, na, ka hinga te pa nei a Pari-Waiehu, ka mate hoki a Koromahue. Koianei te ingoa “Toa Takatini” o ta tatou pepa. E tonoa ana a Tamaterangi kia whakatu-tu rakau i te taha o era atu toa, ka titiro iho kia ia kaore he kakahu, katahi ka noho puku tonu, te keukeu te aha. Na te mea ano ka uhia mai he kakahu ki runga i te kaumatua ja, katahi ano ka rere mete taiaha. Katahi ka whakatauki Ana ka tika. He Ao te Rangi ka uhia! He huruhuru te manu ka tau.” Waihoki ta tatou pepa ma te uhia mai kite tekau herengi (10/-) i te tau, katahi ka tau, ka wana hoki te rere haere, na reira kia kaha mai koutou.
