Kare a mama i hoatu he taonga nui ki a raua. Aita râ te taeae e te mau tuahine i oto maoro. I whai hua te kotiro Ahia i taua wa, ka akiaki i tana tuahine ki te korero i tana tuakana ki te takaro tokotoru. Ki te whakaaro he iti te tinana o te kotiro Ahia, he rite ki te arewhana me te moose ki te tiihi nui a tona tuakana.
He aha te reinga i paheke ai taua tamahine moepuku ki roto i te tii a tona papa, he momo whakaihiihi? I tino hiahia ia kia whakapakeke ia, a ka hikoi ia i te whare me ona tarau! A ka haere ki hea te tangata i te mea kua mau kee tona mahunga ki te whainga. Kaore e taea e te tiihi te tu atu i tera whakamatautauranga.
He piripono, he taurite nga hononga kei a raua, a kare raua e paopao ki te whakawhanaunga. He tino mohio te tuahine ki te whakakoi i tona waha ki te tikaokao nui a tona tuakana me te mea nei ehara tenei i te wa tuatahi ki a raua enei momo whakangahau.
