HE KORERO TENEI NO TE MATENGA O TAHANA AOANIWANIWA.
Na Tamati Wiremu i Tuhi.
te Aro, i Poneke, i timata ai te whaka rite Ture a te Tahana Aoaniwaniwa, te tamaiti a Hemi Parai, mo tona iwi mo Ngatihaumia, kia unuhia te Pou wheki a tona tupuna, a Kerei Kopeka ara, kia uakina te tatauo te wbare kia tukua atu tona Iwi, nga tangata o roto o tenei whare i te Aro Pa kia haere ki Taranaki, no te mea kei a ia ano nga ki o tenei whare e pupuru tana. No tana whakatuheratanga ite tatau ka marama katoa nga whakaaro 0 nga'tangata te titiro kite ao o te Uru; ka hari o ratou ngakau rao te maramatanga; onga whakaaro o tenei tangata pai, o te Tahana Aoaniwaniwa no te mea e tu tonu ana ia i runga i tona Iwi. He pai rawa tenei tangata; he nui rawa atu ona whakaaro kite mataurauga;ko ana mahi katoa i haere 1 runga o te Ture tikanga \ ko tona mohio ki nga Ture a te Kuini i kake rawa atu—manakohia ana e ia nga ritenga pai a te pakeha ; i u tonu ia kite whakapono ki nga ritenga o nga Karaipiture. No te 29 o Hurai i hui ai tona twi kite whakarongo i ana tikanga pai. No te rima o uga haora, no te 20 o uga raeneti, ka noho kite whenua—k;i mate rawa. Ko ana kupu enei i tona korerotanga "Ngatiruanui, e rurukia ho pakikau; Ngatitupaia, e rurukia ho pakikau, ka mate ko ite ua; Ngatihaumia, rurukia ho pakikau, ka mate koe ite ua: me titiro atu tatou kite Rata piko na—kei reira te kowharawhara hei rerenca atu mo tatou ki reira. E rere, e rere, ete kotare, ki runga kite kowharawhara ruru ai ho pakikau—ka mate koe ite ua." Ka tahi ka whiua atu te akitiwha kite whakameneuga—he kawenata tera mana ki tona Iwi, mo nga ritenga korero, kia tangohia mai tona akitiwha. Ka tahi ka wbakahua i tana Waiata : • Tera te marama whakaputa ke mai, E noho ana au i te mata Parae: Whakamau te titiro kite kapua rere mai ; Jna reira mai te aroha ote tau kua huri atu kite rangi : Ka tahi nei ka lioki mai ki a au, Apopo noho ke ana lioki, Apopo noho ke ana lioki; Ko to ngau 'a te Atua te ma kaiho, Kei tae tau Ropi, kei boki au kite ao; Kei tae taku Ropi, kei hoki au ki te ao, e!
Otira, no te matenga o tona matua, 0 te teina o Hemi Parai i te IS o nga ra o Hurai, ka raihi ki toDa matua, ka tu ki runga kite poroporo aki;— Haere atu ra e koro. Haere atu ra Ite ringaringao Aitua: Ko te rongotaima ten a i purutfa ai e au te whenua —ko koe." Heoiano ana poroporo aki mo tona matua mo Mohi TiraUoki; ka tahuri iho ia ki tona Iwi—'* E k >ro, e Hemi, ka wetekia e au to koutuu tatua, ara, te whenua. Melietnea ko te tua ahu kei.konei ka kawea rawatia e au inaiauei; ko tenei kei te mamao a te Kawaua i a tatou—he abakoa i a Akarana, ka tae au ki reira: kite tutata mai a te Mak irini ka kawea rawatia e an." Ka mea mai nga tangata o te whakamenenga, "kia pono"—ka mea atu auo a Tahana, " ka pono"; ka hari o ratou ngakaa. H eoiaiio, kti itiulu-
