While chantino- the last lines, Lapakahoe said: "The boy is deceiving vis." 

 Lapakahoe then turned to Kuapakaa and said: "Your chant was indeed good, but you 

 are deceiving us, for Pakaa is not ashore, yet you ask us to land." After making this 

 remark, Lapakahoe ordered the men in front and behind to paddle away. The order 

 was also given the sailing masters. When they were starting off, Kuapakaa said to his 

 father: "My master is off." Pakaa replied: "Chant the name of your master." 



Gently ! Gently ! 



Gently ! Gently ! 



Be prepared, make ready, 



That canoe, this canoe. 



Steady the hand, 



Take up the paddle, 



Shake off the water from the feet, 



Avoid being slippery. 



Let the back and sides be slippery. 



Sit up, those in front and behind, 



So as to keep the hands dry when paddling. 



The burden of the hands is the paddle. 



The opponent of the wave is the paddle. 



You make your deposit, the blue. 



You take up your share, the white. 



You turn up the white foam with the paddle, 



Within and without the canoe. 



The going forth of the canoe is in jerks. 



It is agitated, it shakes. 



The men fall on the canoe. 



The bailing cups are knocked alxiut, 



The ohia [mast] rattles; 



The laiihala [sail] is breaking, 



The opponent of the wind ; 



The bow of the canoe is filled with water. 



Who is at the bow? 



Pakaa then said to his son Kuapakaa: "Lapakahoe is my younger brother, he is 

 your uncle." The boy then called out each of the men of Keawenuiaumi by name, think- 

 ing this would induce them to land. The boy called as follows: 



THE NAMES OF THE MEN.
