Legend of Ankelenuiaiku. lor 



Mai ka hoomaka ana o keia moolelo e malama ia a hiki i keia la, owai la ka mea 

 like me ka mea hala ole me Ankelenuiaiku ka haawi wale aku i kona punawai momona 

 no hai? Aole he mea like. 



Maloko o keia man olelo haawi a Ankelenuiaiku i ka aina a me ka wahine, aohe 

 ona kuleana pono i koe, ua lilo ia i kuewa hoopili wale. Ia ia e noho haahaa ana, hoo- 

 kahi ana hana, he kamakoi ma na lae kahakai i na manawa a pan loa, a ua lilo loa ia i 

 mea makaukau ia hana. Ia ia e hana man ana i ke kamakoi, ua halawai mai o Pele 

 laua o Hiiaka me ia, he man kaikaina laua no Namakaokahai. Ia lakou e halawai ana 

 ma kahi o Ankelenuiaiku e kamakoi ana, ua hoalualu loa ia ko Ankelenuiaiku manao 

 e ko laua man helehelena kino, oia o Pele a me Hiiaka. A he mea poina ole i ko 

 Aukelenuiaiku manao ko Pele helehelena a me ko Hiiaka ; ua lilo ia mea he mea hana 

 ino i ka manao, a he mea hiaa loa i ka noho ana ma ka hale. 



Ma ka olelo mua a kakou i olelo ae nei, ua lilo loa o Namakaokahai i na kaikua- 

 ana, a ua nele o Aukelenuiaiku i ka wahine ole, aka, o ko Namakaokahai manao, aole 

 i pan kona aloha ia Aukelenuiaiku, e man ana no e like me mamua. Ia Aukelenuiaiku 

 ma ka hale i ka po, aole ana mea e ae e manao lana ai, a e noonoo man ai, o na mea 

 palupalu man wale no a keia mau kaikamahine pun kuolo. Nolaila, hoolalau ka Aukele- 

 nuiaiku hana i ke aho, ka makau, ke kamakoi, e hamo ai me ka lohi an, a me ka apa. 



Ma keia mau hana a Aukelenuiaiku, he mau hana hoonalonalo i kana wahine ia 

 Namakaokahai, i ike ole ia mai kona manao huna o loko. Ekolu la o ko Aukelenui- 

 aiku hele ana i ka lawaia, alaila, komo mai la ka noonoo i kana wahine no keia mau 

 hana ana. He mea mau ia ia ka hele ana e lawaia i ka wa kakahiaka nui o ka la, a 

 hiki i ka wa poeleele o ke ahiahi, hoi mai. Ma keia hele ana a Aukelenuiaiku, ua 

 poina ia ia ke kaulai ana i kana aho, aole i hana e like me mamua ke kaulai i ke aho a 

 maloo. A no ka maloo ole o ke aho, ua lilo ia i mea na kana wahine e noonoo ai. No 

 keia mea ua lilo ia i mea kaumaha no Aukelenuiaiku. 



A hala keia la, hiki hou mai kekahi la, he mea mau no ko Aukelenuiaiku iho 

 ana i ka makoikoi i kai, a hiki i ke ahiahi, hoi aku la me ka wahine. Mamua ae nae 

 o kona hoi ana me ka wahine, hou iho la i ke aho a me ka makau i loko o ka wai, i mea 

 e manao mai ai ka wahine i ka lawaia. A hiki o Aukelenuiaiku i ka hale, hookahi ana 

 hana o ka milikaa i ke aho me ka makau, no kona hana mau ia mea he milimili, i aku 

 ka wahine, penei: "Aia no hoi ka mili a ke kane i ke aho, a he loaa ka ia, e hele nei, 

 ola la hoi ke kiai hale; o kau hana no ka milikaa i ke aho me ka makau, aole nae he 

 ia ke hoi mai. Poho ka la ia oe." I aku ke kane : "Ua manao anei oe e ka wahine, he 

 mea hopuhopu wale ka ia o ka moana, o kii aku a lawe mai? Kai no o ke aho, ka ma- 

 kau, o ko'u kuleana no ia, aohe o ke kii aku a lawe mai, aia i ko ka ia manao ka ai ae 

 i ka'u a me ka ole." A mahope o keia kamailio, hele hou no o Aukelenuiaiku e lawaia,
