            “Aole o Bela Kalani i lilo he kaikamahine punahele i na mea apau, a ina aole oe i ike iaia no na makahiki elua, e lilo ana i mea hookahaha i kou wa e ike hou aku ai iaia. No’u iho, aole no i holole’a loa ko’u noonoo no ka makemake i kela kaikamahine no Kapena Ivana, aka aole no a’u ahewa wale ana aku iaia no kona makemake ole, no ka mea o Kapena Ivana ponoi no ka i hoike okoa aku i kona makemake ole e hookoia ka mare mawaena o laua, a hui pu iho ma ka huli hoi ole aku o ke kapena opio, a hala keia mau makahiki elima, ua lawa ia no ka hoopoina loa ana o ke kaikamahine opio ia Ivana.

            “Oiai nae ke kamailio nei kaua i na mea e pili ana no Bela Kalani, e hoike aku ana au ia oe i ka’u mea i ike no kela kaikamahine, o ia hoi, ma ka’u nana aku, me he mea la, aia kona noonoo nui no ka Haku Hale Fanadale.

            “Ina he oiaio keia mea au i kamailio mai la, alaila aole loa he pono, e hookoia ka mare mawaena o Bela Kalani ame ka Haku Fanadale. Ua kamaaina au i ke ano o kela kanaka opio, ua hiki ia’u ke kapa aku iaia i keia la, he mea makilo, a i ole he kanaka opulepule.

            “Me kela mau olelo i lalau aku ai ka Loio Malo ika nupepa, a nana iho la ma kahi i makaia o ka nupepa me ka inika ulaula, me he koko la.

            Penei iho ka meahou i hoopukaia ae maloko o ka nupepa, a i apoia hoi ma ka inika ulaula:

            “Oiai o Kapena Ivana Leonada, he kapena no ka pualikoa Pelekane e alakai ana i kona mau ualikoa me Zaniba, iku ai oia i ka poka a make loa, ma ka manawa i halawai aku ai me na enemi.

            I ka hooki ana iho o ka loio i kana heluhelu ana i ka meahou kaumaha, luliluli ae la kona poo, me ka pane ana mai ike kauka:

            “E malama ana au i keia pepa e Kauka Lolena,” me ka lalau ana iho i kekahi mau nupepa maloko o ka pakeke o kona kuka, nana iho la ma kahi o na mehou kekekalapa, ma ka la i hoakakaia no ka make ana o ke kapena opio ; a heluhelu hou iho la oia i keia itamu:

            “He lono kelekalapa ka i loaa mai i ke keena o ko na Aina E, mai ke Kanikela Pelekane mai, e noho ana ma Zaniba, e hooia mai ana no ka make ana o Kapena Ivana Leonada, oiai oia e alakai ana i kona mau pualikoa, mawaho aku o Gizeka, kabi i hooukaia ai o kekahi kaua hahana loa me na kanaka kipi. Ua lilo kela nuhou no ka make ana o Kapena Ivana Leonada i mea hookaumaha i ka manao o ka poe i kamaaina iaia, ka mea a na aliikoa kiekie i nana aku ai, oia kekahi o na aliikoa e pii aku ana ahiki i kona lilo ana i kenerala i kekahi la.”

            “He keu aku a ka mea minamina, i ka halawai ana o ke kanaka opio me kela make, ke kumu hoi o ke kau pu ana aku o ka poino maluna o kona makuakane,” i pane ae ai ka Loio Malo.
