I kēia manawa ua hōʻoia ʻia: Ua ʻike nā kānaka ʻepekema ma ke kula holoholona ma Kaleponi ua ʻoi aku ka ʻeleu o ka poʻe ʻelemakule me ka ʻīlio, ʻoi aku ka launa pū ʻana a kaʻana like me ka poʻe e pili ana iā lākou e pili ana i nā ʻike a me nā hanana o kēia manawa. ʻOiai ʻo kēia mau pōmaikaʻi, ʻaʻole makemake ka nui o nā hale hoʻomaha a me nā kahu hānai e ʻae i nā ʻīlio i holoholona. Eia nō naʻe, ua ʻike mua kekahi mau hale hana kahiko i nā hopena maikaʻi o nā hoaaloha wāwae ʻehā i ka poʻe ʻelemakule a ʻae i ko lākou poʻe kamaʻāina e lawe mai i kā lākou mau hoaaloha liʻiliʻi me lākou a kūʻai paha iā lākou.
ʻO nā ʻīlio, e like me nā kānaka, he mau mea ola e pono ai a hāʻawi i ke aloha a me ka nānā. Manaʻo ka poʻe ʻelemakule i ke aloha a makemake ʻia a hiki i kēia ke pale i ka mehameha i ʻike pinepine ʻia i ka wā ʻelemakule. Ma ka mālama ʻana i ka ʻīlio i kēlā me kēia lā, hiki ke mālama ʻia kahi hana maʻamau i kēlā me kēia lā, a ʻo ka hele wāwae ʻana, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka poʻe ʻelemakule a ʻoi aku ka ikaika a hoʻoikaika mau i ka ea hou.
Eia kekahi, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka pilina o ka poʻe ʻelemakule me ka ʻīlio. ʻO ka poʻe kahiko me ka ʻīlio ʻole, ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe, noho pinepine lākou i nā hoʻomanaʻo o ka wā i hala. Ua maʻalahi ka launa pū ʻana e nā hoa aloha ʻehā wāwae: ʻoi aku ka maʻalahi o ka poʻe a kamaʻilio me nā mea nona nā ʻīlio a me nā hoalauna, no ka laʻana. Inā ʻaʻohe ʻīlio, ʻaʻole hiki kēia. Eia naʻe, pono nā ʻīlio a me nā haku e hoʻohālikelike i kekahi i kekahi ma ke ʻano o ka makahiki. Hiki paha i ka ʻīlio pāʻani pāʻani ke hoʻomāʻewaʻewa i ka poʻe ʻelemakule - ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi, ka holoholona a me ke kanaka.
Hōʻike maopopo nā pōmaikaʻi he aha nā ʻīlio waiwai e hōʻike ai no nā ʻelemakule a me nā hale hoʻomaha. A ʻoiai paha e lōʻihi ana ka manawa ma mua o ka hiki ʻana o ka holomua, hoʻokahi mea i maopopo: ʻo ka wā e hiki mai ana i nā hale hoʻomaha a me nā hale hānai no ka "hoaaloha maikaʻi loa o ke kanaka"!
