Lahainaluna
O ka Elepani ka mea nui o na mea wawae eha a pau Ina e ku kekahi kanaka maluna o ke poo o kekahi, alaila, like ko laua kiekie me ko ka Elepani. Ewalu kapuai ke kiekie o kekahi, a he umikumamalima ko kekahi. Aole i like ke ano o ka Elepani me ko kekahi ilio e. Ua kiekie kuna kua, a ua kuapuu; aole hoi i like me ke Kamelo. Ua nui loa kona kino; ua pokole kona ai, a ua nui hoi; ua palahalaha hoi kona mau pepeiao, aole nae i ku iluna. ua pili no i ke poo; ua uuku loa kona mau maka e like paha me ko ke kao: ua nui loa kona mau wawae, a ua loihi, a ua manamana hoi, elima no mana, ua pokole nae. He ano e wale no kona ihu, ua loihi loa me he laau la, a hiki loa ka nuku ilalo i ka lepo; a ma kela aoao, keia aoao o ka ihu, he niho nui loa, oia ka mea i oleloia he niho Elepani. Ua keokeo loa kekahi Elepani, aole nae i nui na Elepani keokeo he ahinahina wale no ka nui. Ua manoanoa kona ili, a ua puupuu, a ua huluhulu iki. Aia ma na ululaau o Inia kahi e holoholo ai, a ma Aferika no hoi kekahi. O na lau laau a me na lala laau, a me na aa kana mea ai nui. E ai no hoi ia i ka mauu a me ka raiki, a me ka huapalaoa, ia hua aku ia hua aku.
