| It so happened that half-way down the cliff, which is twelve fathoms high, there was a boy named manaia. |
| When she came to the surface, I was still clasped tightly in her arms, and manaia cried to her to swim to the canoe. |
| Then, once we were at a safe distance, we ran swiftly to the beach, and then onwards to where manaia awaited us. |
| This shows a closed-mouth manaia with a very large hand on the body. |
| So manaia and I and Selema stole away to the boat, and the people of the village, who pitied us, pretended not to hear or see us. |
| Then manaia whispered to me and asked me if it was to my mind to take her. |
