Ma ke awakea, lawe hou ae la o Aiwohikupua e hooko i ka laua mea i olelo ai ia po iho mamua.

Iloko o ko laua manawa i hoomaka ai no ka hooko ana i ka hoohiki, alaila, ua pono ole ia mea i ko Poliahu manao.

Ia manawa, lawe ae la o Poliahu i kona kapa la, a aahu iho la, ia manawa ka hookuu ana’ku o Poliahu i ka wela maluna o Hinaikamalama.  Ia manawa, hapai ae la oia he wahi mele, penei: 

  “He wela—­e, he wela,
   Ke poi mai nei ka wela a kuu ipo ia’u,
   Ke hoohahana nei i kuu kino,
   Ke hoonakulu nei hoi i kuu manawa,
   No kuu ipo paha keia wela—­e.”

I aku o Aiwohikupua, “Aole no’u na wela, malia paha no Poliahu no na wela, ua huhu paha ia kaua.”

I aku la o Hinaikamalama, “E hoomanawanui hou kaua, a ina i hiki hou mai ka wela maluna o kaua, alaila, haalele mai oe ia’u.”

Mahope iho o keia mau mea, hoao hou ae la laua i ka laua hana no ka hooko i ka laua hoohiki.

Ia manawa, kau hou mai la no ka wela maluna o laua, alaila, hapai hou ae la oia ma ke mele: 

  “He wela—­e he we—­la,
   Ke apu mai nei ka wela a ka po ia’u,
   Ke ulili anapu nei i kau manawa,
   Ka wela kukapu o ka hooilo,
   I haoa enaena i ke kau,
   Ka la wela kulu kahi o ka Makalii,
   Ke hoeu mai nei ka wela ia’u e hele,
   E hele no—­e.”

Ia manawa, ke ku ae la no ia o Hinaikamalama hele.

I mai o Aiwohikupua, “Kainoa o ka haawi mai i ka ihu, alaila hele aku.”

I mai la o Hinaikamalama, “Aole e haawiia ka ihu ia oe, o ka hao ana mai ia o ka wela o ua wahine au, pono ole.  Aloha oe.”

(E waiho kakou i ke kamailio ana no Aiwohikupua maanei.  E pono e kamailio pokole no Hinaikamalama.)

Mahope iho o kona hookaawale ana ia Aiwohikupua, hele aku oia a noho ma ka hale kamaaina.

Ia po iho, he po lealea hou ia no Hauailiki me na’lii ma Puuopapai.

Ia po, hoomanao ae la o Hinaikamalama no kana kauoha ia Hauailiki, mahope iho o ko laua umeia ana, a mamua hoi o kona hoohui ana me Aiwohikupua.

I kela po, oia ka lua o ka po lealea, alaila, hele aku la o Hinaikamalama a noho pu aku la mawaho o ka aha.

Ia manawa, na Kauakahialii laua me Kailiokalauokekoa ke kilu mua.  Mahope iho, na Kailiokalauokekoa me Makaweli, ka lua o ka lealea.

Ia laua e kilu ana, komo mai la o Poliahu iloko o ka aha lealea.  Ia Hauailiki me Poliahu ke kilu hope oia po.

A no ka ike ole o ka mea ume ia Hinaikamalama i kela po, nolaila, aole e hiki i ka mea ume ke hoomaka i kana hana.  No ka mea, ua oleloia i ka po mua, no Hauailiki a me Hinaikamalama ka lealea mua oia po, a no ka loaa ole i ka maka o ka mea ume, ua lilo ka lealea i na mea e ae.

I ke kokoke ana e ao ua po nei, huli ae la ka mea ume iloko o ka aha ia Hinaikamalama, a loaa iho la.

Ia manawa, ku mai la ka mea ume a waenakonu o ka aha, ia Hauailiki me Poliahu e kilu ana, ia manawa, kani aku la ke oli a ka mea ume, e hookolili ana i ka welau o ka maile i luna o Hauailiki, a kaili mai la ka mea ume i ka maile, alaila, ku mai la o Hauailiki.  Hele aku la ua mea ume nei a loaa o Hinaikamalama, kau aku la i ka maile a kaili mai la.  Ia manawa, ku mai la o Hinaikamalama mawaho o ka aha imua o ke anaina.
