I ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, e noʻonoʻo ana i ka makahiki o ke kaikunāne a me ke kaikuahine, he mea maʻamau ka hoʻāla ʻana o ke kaikunāne i ka ʻike ʻana i ke kaikamahine ʻōlohelohe i mua ona. Malia paha ʻo ka mea i hana ʻia aʻe ʻaʻole ia he ʻāpana o nā hoʻolālā o ka maʻamau, akā e haʻi mai iaʻu me ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, e kūʻē anei ʻoe i kēlā nani lauoho ʻeleʻele? ʻO ia kaʻu ʻōlelo.
ʻO ka mea nui ʻaʻole pehea ka hohonu o ka wahine e lawe i ka moa i loko o kona waha. ʻO ka mea nui, ʻo ia ka hoʻoikaika a me ka palaualelo! ʻO kā mākouʻohana ma hope o nā pilikia a pau ma ka home a me nā keiki e moe i lalo, e hohola i kona mau wāwae, a e like me kā lākou e'ōlelo nei i ka hana, Vasya! A laila noʻonoʻo no ke aha mākou e ʻimi nei i nā limahana wahine ma ka ʻaoʻao! A no ka mea, ʻaʻole lākou moloā a ʻike i ka lawe mālie a me ka mālie i ke kanaka i ka piko o ka leʻaleʻa. E ʻimi anei mākou i ka leʻaleʻa i ka lede o ka hale inā lawelawe ʻia mākou ma ia ʻano?
Akā maikaʻi ke kaikamahine.
