HE TANIWHA TANGATA.
Ki Te Pipiwharauroa. EWHAKATU nei i nga hua o te Raumati tanga ote tau. E manu tena koe mau e tuku atu enei kupu ruarua hei oranga mo te kanohi raua ko te taringa, hei pouritanga mo etehi hei haringa hoki mo etehi i roto i nga tau maha kua taha ake nei. Nui atu te hiahia o nga iwi o Waikato kite mahi tohunga, ko nga taane te hiahia kite mahi tohunga he hiahia kite wahine te take. Ko nga wahine pera ano, koia ka rite te Karaipiture e ki nei ka wetekina a hatana he taima iti nei. No Waikato ano au e whakaatu nei i tenei ahua i runga i tenei ahua epa ana ki tenei takiwa. Ko tenei takiwa kei te kino rawa te heke kite po. Ko tenei taniwha ko te Whitu e hau nei te rongo i runga i tana mahi tohunga ara moe i nga wahine e mate ana ki taku mohio ko te ngakau kau kei te kawe o te nei taniwha horo tangata. Ko tenei Whitu e hau nei te rongo e hara i te tamariki e hara ranei i te kaumatua e ngari he koroheke heto kanuku no reira he aha te pai kia kino i a ia te ingoa o Waikato ki runga ano i a ia tona kino pera hoki me Wereta i runga ano te ingoa kino o tana mahi i a ia ano ehara hoki i te mea ko te mahi tohunga anake te he o Waikato, tera ano tetehi ko te kai waipiro. Pera ano te take he wahine e kore te waipiro e kainga notia e ngari kia huihui tangihanga kite tetahi atu take ranei e rupeke mai ai nga kotiro ! ka tahi ka tikina he waipiro te mutunga o te na huihui ka wehewehe ka tahi ka kitea e tangitangi ana nga kotiro kia ratou whaiaipo hoira ka mutu iho enei korero mei kore te hunga whakapono kua ngaro tenei motu i te nui ote kino. Kia ora ete Pipi. Na P.P. Ngaruawahia, Waikato.
