 The Maori kopi seems to offer the germ 

 sense, to double together by means of a 

 hinge or joint, from which, by neglect of 

 the specific character or considering only 

 the result, we come to the sense of closing 

 or shutting. The occurrence of this sense 

 in the Marquesas together with the specific 

 use as to washing the hands evidences that 

 in the islander's mind there is an associa- 

 tion. Thus we come readily at the iden- 

 tification of the Rapanui signification.
