TE TEKA.
I te whakataunga a Mr. Hawkins, he kaiwhakawa i tetahi keehi i korero teka ai etahi o nga pono, ka puta ana kupu tino kaha mo te weriweri o tenei hara ote korero teka. I mea ia ; “Ko te korero teka i roto ite whare whakawa kua mahia tohungatia, e ata whakaritea ana hei whakapohehe i te ture, otira kaore tenei tikanga ite kinongia ete tangata. E tino hiahia ana au kia whakatahuritia te nuinga ote tangata kia weriweri ratou kite teka —ki tenei tikanga tutua, tino whakarihariha, tino weriweri i nga wa katoa, a tino kino rawa atu ina mahia i roto ite whare-whakawa. I kaha ai tenei tikanga na te kore o te nuinga o te tangata e whakakino kite kino. Ko te teka te pa piringa o te pononga, o te waero-humene otira he mea whakataurekareka i te tino tangata.” E te iwi Maori e tau ana ranei tenei tohutohu ki a tatou ? Pehea ai tatou i roto i nga whare whakawa, i nga whare kooti ? “ E Ihowa, whakaorangia toku wairua i te ngutu teka, i te arero hianga.”
