I am tired of this fellow, who has been fooling me; come now, do 
you two bring him to me; bring him to the place where I stand, 
Then his men went; they brought the canoe; notwithstanding 
the sail and the paddling with oars; they brought the canoe to the 
place where the chief stood. Then he called again, ‘ Tui-Afono, 
let me be a sixth in your canoe.’ He was unwilling; and the 
canoe went on; the chief let it goon. They went on and reached 
the spot where they had been [a little before]; it was brought

toward it; the crew and Tui-Afono were frightened; they thought 
they were turned towards Tutuila. Then they voyaged on; they 
continued to voyage on; the food was all consumed and the drink, 
and the days of the canoe were ended. The crew grumbled ; 
Tangaloa asked, ‘What is it’? Tui-Afono answered, ‘Tangalos 
this crew is going to die; there is no food ; the food is all con- 
sumed.’ Tangaloa answered, ‘Look into the hold of the cau% 
towards the starboard side.’ Then they looked carefully; the 
bread-fruit branch had fruited and become a live bread-fruit, and
