Reading edition

The ninth cane: the Ainakea;43 the ones who obtained this cane were Kuula and Kane; these two had practiced sorcery on the people of Honuaula and left their bones bleaching in the sun. That is why this cane was called Ainakea, on account of the rascality of these men. This cane is red with long white stripes, but its trash, and in eating it, is like the Opukea, white; that is the kind of cane this is.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
