He Tupapaku.
No te Taite 16 ka mate a te Rangimoehau te tamaiti a Tawhiro raua ko Marara, i mate ki Kereitaone nei. He nui te pouri mete mamae o nga matua me nga tipuna o te tamaiti nei, mo tona wehenga atu ia ratau. I mabaratia atu hoki e te ngakau, hei tangata pumau ia mo roto i enei ra e tu mai nei, kaati na te mate i baukoti ona ra, koia ka tawbeta noa ibo nga wawatanga a te ngakau i te tahora pukai ai, "inehe rimu kotau pae kite tabuna e ei." E taea boki te pewbea tenei banga te mate, te tangata na ana i wbakatahuri nga waka nunui o nga rangatira o te ao, a, e kore ia e taea te arai atu te raupatu ranei, kia kabore atu ai tona kaupapa i te ao nei. Na reira mibi mai tangi ma' e nga wbanaunga ki to koutou aitua, tenei kua tere i runga i te la kaba a te mate, e auripo nei ia tatau kite po. Waibo ma te wae titiro, be ra kai tua bei tangihanga mo tatau ki o tatau aitua e tawbeta nei i waenganui ia tatau. Heoi ano kia ora.
(He kupu i wareware.) I rjDga tonu abau i te pokaikaha ki taku tamaiti kia hoki mai ki au, ara, i te wa e tutetutea ana tona tin an ae te mate, tae noa kite wa i wehe atu ai ia i au. Eaore ahau i whakaaro ake ki fcc koutou taonga kite "Poke," engari 1 waiho noatanga ake e au to koutou taonga i raro, abu ke ana taku ngakau nui ki taku tamaiti.' I runga i taku whakaaro i nui ke atu taku tamaiti i te taonga e mahi nci au, otira mehemea boki ko tetahi atu tangata e mahi nei mete pa boki ote aitua ki a ia, ka penei mai ano te ngakau me toku. Heoi ra 1 whakamarama ake ai au i enei kupu, mo te tureiti haeretanga o te puta o te "Puke," he mea naku kai pouri mai nga kai tautoko mo te roa o te "Puke," he take nui tenei hei tirohanga mai ma koutou. Notemea ko nga mahi akuanei pae noa iho ai ite ao aei, engari ko te tangata e rite ana kite r» e puta mai ana i te pae, a, e torengi atu ana ki tua o nga pae maunga ngaro atu. No reira kaua hei pouri kai te mahi to koutou taonga i naianei. Heoi kia ora, Na te Etita.
