Note 33 — CONTENTS. (continued 6)
Reading edition
Kauahoa replied: “Perhaps my weapon will not be fully satisfied with you. Let us string flowers; my garland is completed, whereas yours is not. Let us urinate. I urinate for a length of time; you, a short time. Why, then, will this weapon spare you?”33 Kauahoa struck but [the blow] fell harmlessly on the back of Kawelo, who urged his ulus forward: “O Kaulukauloko, Kaulukauwaho, etc., strike vehemently; and hold the weapon down fast.” When Kauahoa tried to withdraw [the weapon] it moved not. Kawelo ran his spear, Kuikaa, from head to foot, and Kauahoa was killed.
