Reading edition

While they were going along they were given chase. They came along until they caught up with Pueonuiokona.93 The owl, however, did not catch sight of them while they were coming. When they had passed ahead the prophet who was chasing them caught up with Pueonuiokona. The owl asked, “What is the cause of this heavy breathing and this perspiring?” This one answered, “That you should be asking ‘what’? Spirits! and there they are! I am chasing them, but can not catch them; I have been wishing to get near them so that I can kill them, for I am possessed with great anger towards them.”
