Note 19 — Introductory material
Reading edition
At daylight the next day, Moi said to the chief, Kapepeekauila: “Say, I had a dream last night.” The chief said: “Tell me what it is.” Moi then told him of the dream as related above. After telling the dream, Moi gave an interpretation of its meaning, but the chief would not believe it. Seeing this, Moi prophesied to the chief and people, saying: “If you are not going to take heed to my warning, the priest, you will surely be dispossessed. If it is a woman that is unbelieving, she shall make a poor marriage, a woman is she of Kupukupu19 she will be hooked up by the bill of the duck and left on the height of Halihuki. I saw a long man, and it was by him that the borders of Haupu were broken and the hill fell to pieces into the sea; therefore depart now while death is yet at a distance.”
