Note 34 — PREFACE. (continued 3)

When Aukelenuiaiku and Lonoikoualii landed on the moon, the moon in disgust asked of Aukelenuiaiku: “Whose conceited child are you? My back has never been climbed by my own grandchild, Namakaokahai, and here you have done it.” “I am your own child.” “Mine by whom?” Aukelenuiaiku replied: “Yours. I am the child of Kapapaiakea with Iku.” Kaukihikamalama then said: “Are you the ward of Kapoino and Kamooinanea?” “Yes, I am he.” The moon replied: “You came near being killed, my lord.” This conversation, in the heaven between Aukelenuiaiku and Kaukihikamalama, was overheard by Namakaokahai, who then knew for the first time that her husband was no other person than Aukelenuiaiku, because the name by which she knew him was Kanakaokai. Therefore she said to her father and brothers: “How strange this is! I thought that this person was somebody else altogether, but I now see it is Aukelenuiaiku, the son of Kapapaiakea with Iku, and the ward of Kapoino34 and Kamooinanea.”
