14.
Ā, i kite anō ahau, nā, ko te Reme e tū ana i Maunga Hiona, kotahi rau e whā tekau mā whā mano ōna hoa, ko tōna ingoa, me te ingoa o tōna Matua, he mea tuhituhi ki ō rātou rae. 
Nā, ka rongo ahau i te reo i te rangi, tōna rite kei te haruru o ngā wai maha, kei te haruru anō o te whatitiri nui; ā, ko te reo i rongo ai ahau, ānō ko te reo o ngā kaiwhakatangi hāpa e whakatangi ana i ā rātou hāpa; 
ā, ko tā rātou waiata me te mea he waiata hou i mua i te torōna, i mua hoki i ngā mea ora e whā, i ngā kaumātua anō hoki. E kore hoki e taea e tētahi te ako taua waiata, ko ngā mano anake kotahi rau e whā tekau mā whā, kua oti nei te hoko i runga i te whenua. 
Ko te hunga tēnei kāhore nei i poke i te wahine; he wāhina hoki rātou. Ko te hunga tēnei e aru ana i te Reme ki ngā wāhi katoa e haere ai ia. He mea hoko ēnei i roto i ngā tāngata, he mātāmua ki te Atua, ki te Reme hoki. 
Kāhore hoki he tinihanga i mau i ō rātou māngai; he kohakore rātou. 
I kite anō ahau i tētahi atu anahera e rere ana i waenganui o te rangi, kei a ia te rongopai mau tonu hei kauwhau māna ki te hunga e noho ana i te whenua, ki ngā iwi katoa, ki ngā hapū, ki ngā reo, ki ngā huihuinga tāngata. 
Ā, he nui tōna reo ki te mea, “Kia wehi koutou ki te Atua, hoatu ki a ia he korōria; kua tae mai hoki te hāora o tāna whakawā. Koropiko atu hoki ki a ia, ki te Kaihanga o te rangi, o te whenua, o te moana, o ngā puna wai.” 
I aru mai anō tētahi atu anahera, i mea, “Kua horo, kua horo a Papurōna, te pā nui, i whakainu nei i ngā tauiwi katoa ki te wāina, o te riri o tōna moepuku.” 
I aru mai anō te toru o ngā anahera i a rāua, nui atu tōna reo ki te mea mai, “Ki te koropiko tētahi ki te kararehe, ki tōna whakapakoko hoki, ka tango hoki i te tohu ki tōna rae, ki tōna ringaringa rānei, 
e inu anō ia i te wāina o te riri o te Atua, e ringihia nei, he mea kāhore i whakananua, ki roto ki te kapu o tōna riri; e whakamamaetia hoki ia i roto i te kāpura, i te whānāriki i te aroaro o ngā anahera tapu, i te aroaro hoki o te Reme. 
Ā, kake ana te paoa o tō rātou whakamamaetanga ake ake. Kāhore hoki he okiokinga i te ao, i te pō, mō te hunga e koropiko ana ki te kararehe, ki tōna whakapakoko hoki, mō te tangata hoki e tango ana i te tohu o tōna ingoa.” 
Tēnei te manawanui o te hunga tapu, o te hunga e pupuri ana i ngā ture a te Atua, i te whakapono hoki o Īhu. 
Ā, ka rongo ahau i tētahi reo i te rangi e mea ana, “Tuhituhia: Ka hari ngā tūpāpaku e mate nei i roto i te Ariki i ngā wā i muri nei.” “Āe rā!” e ai tā te Wairua, “kia okioki ai rātou i ā rātou mahi; e aru tahi hoki ā rātou mahi i a rātou.” 
Ā, ka kite anō ahau, nā, he kapua mā; ā, i runga i te kapua e noho ana tētahi, tōna rite kei te Tama a te tangata, i runga anō i tōna māhunga he karauna kōura, i roto i tōna ringaringa he toronaihi koi. 
Nā, ka puta mai tētahi atu anahera i te whare tapu, he nui tōna reo ki te karanga ki tērā e noho rā i runga i te kapua, “Ākina iho tāu toronaihi, kotia! Kua tae hoki te wā e kokoti ai. Kua maroke kē hoki te wīti o te ao.” 
Kātahi tērā e noho rā i runga i te kapua ka āki iho i tāna toronaihi ki te whenua, ā, ka kotia te whenua. 
Ā, ka puta mai anō he anahera i roto i te whare tapu i te rangi, he toronaihi koi anō hoki tāna. 
Nā, ka puta mai anō tētahi atu anahera i roto i te āta, kei a ia he mana ki te kāpura; he nui tōna reo ki te karanga ki tērā i te toronaihi koi, i mea ia, “Ākina iho tāu toronaihi koi, tapahia ngā tautau wāina o te whenua; kua maoa hoki ōna karepe.” 
Nā, ākina iho ana tāna toronaihi e te anahera ki te whenua, tapahia ana e ia te wāina o te whenua, pangā ana e ia, ki te takahanga nui o te riri o te Atua. 
Nā, ka takahia te takahanga wāina i waho o te pā, ā, puta ake ana he toto i roto i te takahanga, tae noa ake ki ngā paraire o ngā hōiho, ā taea noatia ngā pāronga kotahi mano e ono rau.
