Reading edition
This is one of the industries of Hawaiians of ancient time, and it is still carried on to this day. This is how it is done: when a man desires to go up to build a canoe he must first prepare a pig, red fish, black fish and various other things.103 And when these things are ready he comes home and courts dreams in his sleep. If they are good he will go up, but if they are unfavorable he will not.
