Ko te whenua puia tēnei o ngā puke ahi tipua o Tāmaki-makau-rau i mua i te taenga mai o te Pākehā. E noho nei ngā uri a Te Kawenga me Katati, he whenua taurikura, he wā āio. Heoi e oreore mai ana tētahi āhua.

Kua tūpono mōhio ngā kōhine nei, he āhuatanga kua puta i te tojunga mākutu nei a Te Tumu, me tō rāua wehi kei pā he mate ki te hapū, ki te iwi hoki. ko rāua wehi kei pā he mate ki te hapū, ki te iwi hoki. Ko rāua ēnei e haere ake nei me te kaha o ā rāua whakapae, ka whāia te tohunga kia kore ai tana wawata e tutuki.

Ka whai kaha tonu ngā kōhine nei ki te tohe atu ki ō rāua rangatira, te kaupare ake i te parekura e haere ake nei?
