There you have felt of it ; 



You are made unconscious by Kuikaa. 



By Hookaa, by Kaakua, by Kaaalo." 



You will surely see the avenging club of jMalailua, 



The club that will break your jaws, 



For then the avenging club will cease its work. 



Tomorrow you shall see 



The rooster that is fed of the sun, 



Till the crop fills with dirt 



And the feathers fall ofT 



Like a rooster that is hung up in the smoke" 



With its feathers burnt ofif. 



The conquering cock has made but one kick. 



They are scattered, they are scattered. 



Kanewahineikiaoha after a while came and poured some water over Kalona- 

 ikahailaau which revived him. After the effects of the blow had disappeared, he said 

 to Kawelo: "That is the way to use your club. You have nothing more to learn." 



Some little time after this, Kawelo sent Kanewahineikiaoha, Kamalama, Kala- 

 umeki and Kauluiki, to go to Puuloa and ask of Kakuhihewa, who was king of Oahu 

 at the time, for the use of a canoe. Upon the arrival of the messengers at Puuloa, 

 Kakuhihewa asked of them: "What do you want?" Kanewahineikiaoha replied 

 "We have come for a doul^le canoe for us." Kakuhihewa again asked: "Canoe for 

 what?" "A canoe for Kawelo to go to Kauai to fight Aikanaka." When Kakuhi- 

 hewa heard this, he ordered that a double canoe be given Kawelo; for Kakuhihewa 

 even at this time was in fear of Kawelo, who at any time might rise up and overthrow 

 his kingdom; he therefore furnished Kawelo with the means of removing him to 

 Kauai where he would probably stay. 



Upon receiving the double canoe, the messengers returned and landed at 

 Waikiki, where preparations for the voyage were immediately begun, completed, 

 and a start was made on that day. As they were about to start, Kou, a second wife 

 of Kawelo's, urged that she too be allowed to accompany them to Kauai, but Kawelo 

 would not allow it. They then set sail from Waikiki and made their first landing at 

 Waianae, where they built a temple for the gods of Kawelo. After the temple was 

 completed, Kawelo gathered his gods together, they being Kaneikapualena and Kulani- 

 hchu. Kawelo then lifted up his gods and placed them on the altar in the temple 

 and prayed as follows : 



Say, Kaneikapualena, 



Arise and let us journey to Kauai 



Where we shall grow and live, live and grow. 



At the close of the prayer, the chicken feathers on the forehead of the god 

 fluttered; so he chanted: 



'Names of the four strokes of the war club. "Treatment for a game cock to insure its success in 



a contest.
