Note 7 — Introductory material (continued 2)
Reading edition
When Kaululaau landed on Lanai he entered a patch of reeds and slept there. While in his sleep his god came to him and said: “Say, Kaululaau, get up and enter the cave with all your belongings.” When Kaululaau woke up he looked about him and saw a cave opening near by; so he got up and entered it in obedience to the instructions given him in his sleep. Lanai was an island of spirits. No people could live on this island as the spirits killed and eat everybody who came there. Kaululaau was, however, an exception to this as he was not eaten up; but this was because he was too cunning in telling falsehoods, just like Punia.7
