Note 7 — XXV KAMAPUAA LEGENDS
Reading edition
The people were astonished at the devastation when they came from their houses next morning. Only gods who were angry could have wrought such havoc so unexpectedly, therefore they sent sacrifices to the heiaus, that the gods of their homes might protect them. But the next night other fields were made desolate as if a herd of swine had been wantonly at work all through the night. After a time watchmen were set around the fields and the mighty hog was seen. The people were called. They surrounded Kamapuaa, caught him and tied him with strongest cords of olona7 fibre and pulled him to one side, that on the new day so soon to dawn they might build their oven and roast him for a great feast.
